Have you seen any of these aquatic invasive species?

Invasive species are aggressive and can degrade ecosystems by outcompeting native species. Learn how to recognize invasive plants to help protect the health of our ecosystems.

You can help stop the spread of invasive species!
➡️ Never release aquarium pets, water garden plants, live food, or live bait into rivers, streams, lakes, ponds, storm sewers, or the ocean
➡️ Clean, drain, and dry your boat
➡️ Seek advice from governing bodies in your area for information about best management practices and permits required to address aquatic invasive species
➡️ If you find an invasive species in the wild, visit https://t.co/xYFOvNobBU to report a sighting
