Invasive species are the second greatest threat to biodiversity, second only to direct habitat destruction.
This SVT paper provides information on their general approach to invasive plant management and some specific details of the situation with invasive plants overrunning half the Smith property in Littleton and the potential approach to managing the invasive plants there. SVT has proposed indefinitely delaying the use of any chemicals at the Smith property until they can further investigate the claims and concerns of neighbors and residents.
