Everyone can and should help to stop invasive species. Every time you work in a natural area, maintain a roadway, build a facility, manage rangeland, monitor our natural resources, recreate on a lake, or extract natural resources, you are responsible for preventing the spread of invasive species.

1. Keep clean
2. Limit disturbance
3. Don’t introduce
4. Spot and report

The following information describes each of these practices in more detail.
