Question: Are all invasive plants harmful?
Answer: Not all invasive plants are harmful, but most need some level of control or eradication. Even those that aren’t harmful to humans can disrupt local ecosystems.
A Closer Look:
While some invasive plants may not pose a direct threat to human health, they can outcompete native species for resources like light, water, and nutrients. This can lead to a decline in native biodiversity and disrupt the balance of local ecosystems. Controlling these plants helps maintain ecological integrity and supports the health of native flora and fauna.
