The spread of invasive alien species is recognized as a major and increasingly relevant threat to biodiversity in the Anthropocene.

Intervention at the early stages has the lowest cost and the lowest adverse impacts on the other elements of wildlife.

models to reveal the adverse effects of invasive alien plants.
