Means of Introduction Primarily through people Unintended Intentional Zebra mussels Fire ants Intentional Kudzu Nutria

Effects on New Ecosystem No natural predators to stop them . . . . Uncontrolled population growth Out-compete native species for resources Uncontrolled consumption of prey Change in apex predator

Prevention Select native garden/yard plants Clean boats (inside & out) as soon as removed from a body of water Clean boots before leaving an area (seeds, pathogens) Inspect fruits, vegetables, plants, insects and animals for pests Keep pets as pets!!!—don't release aquarium fish, plants, live bait, or other exotic animals into wild
