Invasive:
Alien Species: not native to a particular
ecosystem (non-native, exotic, introduced)
Cause Harm
Economy
Environment
Human Health

Negative Effects of Invasives:
Environmental
Reduce biodiversity and displace rare species
Alter hydrologic conditions
Alter soil characteristics
Alter fire intensity and frequency
Interfere with natural succession
Compete with pollinators
Poison or repel native insects

Negative Effects of Invasives:
Economy
Serve as a reservoir of plant pathogens
Difficult and costly to control
Impede industries (fisheries, forestry) and
threaten agriculture
Overall drain on the economy (estimated in
1998 at $13,000,000,000)

Negative Effects of Invasives:
Human Health
Reservoirs for disease (insects, rodents,
birds)
Example: West Nile virus in non-native mosquito
Food security
Water depletion

Case Study: Pigeon River Drainage Improvements
Lessons Learned
A Great Lakes Shoreline Management
General Permit was not required for mowing
phragmites below the OHWM.
Don’t staple public notice signs to lathe
Aerial application, while expensive, is an
effective means of herbicide application
