Invasive Species Control

Invasive species are those that are introduced or established in a natural or semi-natural ecosystem or habitat and are agents of change and threat to native biological diversity, either because of their invasive behavior or because of the risk of genetic contamination.

Management And Control

Prevention is the first measure to avoid the entry and impact of exotic species in an ecosystem, whether unintentionally or intentionally. To this end, it is essential to have an adequate legal framework and to increase control over the possible pathways of species introduction. 


If prevention does not happen, the next step is early detection and rapid response: acting before the species becomes invasive. At Cypress Brake Tree Farm, we help you identify these species and manage them in time so they do not affect your native hardwood.

Control of exotic species is when the species is managed to levels that cause the least possible damage to the ecosystem. An invasive species is eradicated if it is completely eliminated.


There are different ways to control these invasive species. The safest method is physical control, which includes mechanical removal methods (grubbing and weeding on plants) and alterations of the physical environment, such as pH or controlled fire.
