Information about common invasive species and backyard invaders is now being offered by Responsible Industry for a Sound Environment (RISE): Invasive Plants Invasive weeds can out-com- pete native species, changing the local ecosystem. Many va- rieties, fi rst introduced as fl ora to plant in gardens, can be confused with similar, native varieties. Here are two com- mon damaging ones to watch out for: • Purple Loosestrife, native to Europe and Asia, is found in most states. One plant can produce more than two million seeds annually. • Native to China, the Tree-of- Heaven was widely planted as an ornamental plant for many years and is often confused with other trees having similar leaves, such as black walnut, butternut, and most sumac. Invasive Insects Invasive insects can also have a severe negative impact on native species by out- competing them for food and resources. Many also cause and carry disease and prey on native species. Two common ones to look out for include: • Emerald Ash Borer, native to Asia, is prominently found across the North- east, Midwest, and Southeastern United States. The larvae do the most damage, killing ash trees by feeding on the inner bark. • Zebra Mussel, native to lakes in south- ern Russia, is found in hundreds of wa- terways throughout the United States. The species commonly clog water intakes, damage boats, and can cause cuts and scrapes if they grow on rocks, swim rafts, and ladders. Backyard Pests Did you know native plants and insects can cause damage too? • Ticks can transmit Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever. After time spent outdoors, check for ticks, especially in and around your ears, inside your belly button, behind your knees, around your waist, on your scalp, and in your hair. • Mosquitoes can carry disease includ- ing West Nile Virus. Follow the "fi ve Ds" to protect yourself: Drain standing water; Stay indoors at dusk and dawn; Dress in long-sleeves and pants; and use a mos- quito repellent. • Poison ivy, poison oak, and poison su- mac can lurk in backyards. Almost 85 per- cent of people develop a rash when they come into contact with these weeds. Control poisonous weeds long-term by carefully digging out the plants while wearing waterproof gloves or treating with an organic pesticide. Defend your local ecosystem by identify- ing exotic plants in your garden or yard. Spot invasive weeds and insects in your area? Let your county extension offi ce know, which may have a monitoring and management program in place. For more lawn and garden tips, visit www.DebugTheMyths.com. By being aware of invasive species and other pests in your area, you can help support native species and a healthy eco- system in your own backyard and neigh- borhood (Provided by StatePoint) Invasive weeds, such as the Purple Loosestrife, can out-compete native species.
