Invasive Species Strike Team

Professional planning, control, and restoration services for public and private lands in Kent County.

Mission & Overview

Our Strike Team is in the field year-round working to protect our natural areas from the negative impacts of aggressive invasive plants.

Invasive plants degrade wildlife habitat by outcompeting our native plant communities which promote a more productive and balanced ecosystem.

Invasive plants also have the potential to impact infrastructure (see knotweed) and human health (see poison hemlock). If you are looking to manage against invasive species, our team is here to provide planning, control and maintenance services on both public and private lands.

Education Sessions

We inform, educate, train, and coordinate volunteers to help control invasive species in our parks. Do you have an audience that is interested in learning more about invasive plants? Email us at kentstriketeam@gmail.com.
