Invasive Species Control
EcoForesters Non-Native Invasive Species Control Crew was developed to provide landowners an option for ecological stewardship action by improving your forest’s health through invasive species assessments and control. Our crew mechanically treats targeted species predominately through the use of handsaws and hatchets, with the assistance of herbicides tailored for specific species.
EcoForesters helps landowners fight invasive species by:
- Providing landowners information on how to identify and treat specific species
- Developing a plan for treatments when, how often, and where to begin
- Overseeing and implementing all invasive species treatments on property
- Teaching landowners how to treat certain species on their property through demonstration, if landowner is interested in completing the treatments themselves

I want to let you know just how impressed I am with EcoForesters’ Forest Restoration Crew Leader Krishun Karau. She was more than a pleasure to work with. She showed great communication skills, work ethic, and team leadership. She obviously has the respect of her crew, as they tackled some difficult terrain with thoroughness and skill. She shared her goals and achievements daily with me, giving me insight to my property. She eagerly shared her knowledge of equipment, chemicals, and solutions to the environmental issue I face on the property. In short, she gave me a new and different appreciation of my property.
