Summary

This project focuses on monitoring invasive plant species in Anguilla to support ongoing eradication efforts of the Tropical Bull Nettle (Cnidoscolus urens). It includes tracking populations of the targeted species and assessing the effectiveness of ongoing treatments. The project will also aim to conduct Weed Risk Assessments for all documented non-native plants in Anguilla. By evaluating potential threats and prioritizing management actions, the project aims to reduce the ecological and economic damage caused by invasive plants to native habitats.
