What is an invasive plant?
•Weed: plant out of place
•Invasive plants:1. Not native2. Survive and reproduce 3. Spread into undisturbed areas4. Dominates areas it occupies

![Page 9: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Is kentucky blue grass a weed/invasive plant?
• Weed = can be– Purposely planted on landscape– Can be weedy in gardens
• Invasive = ?????– Not native– reproduces– Does it spread on it’s own or by us?– Doesn’t dominate native landscapes
![Page 10: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
What about native plants?• Sometimes native plants can become overly
abundant and act invasive. – Early successional species = like disturbance
• EXAMPLES:– Box Elder – Prickly Ash– Aspen trees– Staghorn/smooth Sumac
![Page 11: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Calling something invasive can be tricky
![Page 12: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Impacts of Plant Invasions• Interfere with crop/animal
production– Reduce crop yield, harvesting, poison
cattle
• Societal impacts:– Interfere with recreation
• Ecosystem impacts:– Interfere with native species – Ecosystem processes
![Page 13: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Impacts on Ecosystem Function
– Hydrological processes• Flooding frequency• Depth of groundwater• Bank stabilization/channelization
– Biogeochemical cycling• Increased N in soil• Change in C/N ratios (litter deposition)
– Disturbance regimes• Fire frequency/fuel load• Flood frequency
![Page 14: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Soil impacts
• Spotted knapweed – Dominated sites had increased water
runoff and soil erosion• Surface water runoff increased 56%• Soil erosion increased 192%
• Garlic mustard– Infested areas had reduced biomass
of sapling hardwood trees • sugar maple, red maple, white ash
![Page 15: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
When do we know when a plant is invasive?
• Based on observations in the field
• Difficult to predict– Several researchers have attempted, best
predictor has been• Acting invasive elsewhere
– Results tend to be specific to region

How are invasive plants regulated?
• Federally– Federally listed noxious weeds– Q-37 plant import screening
• Wisconsin– Noxious – Nuisance law– NR40
• Locally– Noxious
![Page 40: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Federal programs/laws
• Federal noxious weed act (1974)– Non-native plants– prevent the introduction into US– prevent the spread
• Q-37 plant import screening (2011)– Non-native plants imported for nursery industry– Lists potentially invasive plants that can’t be
introduced until risk assessment is done

Wisconsin Noxious Weed Law1975
• Requires action for:– Canada thistle– Leafy spurge– Field bindweed
![Page 43: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Wisconsin Noxious Weed Law1975
• Allows for local municipalities to add weeds to the noxious weed law
• Problems with the law, no clear authority on who to enforce– Left to local police/sheriff
• Result: rarely enforced!
![Page 44: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Wisconsin nuisance weed law1987
• Prohibits sale, distribution and cultivation of:
– multiflora rose– purple loosestrife
• DATCP has authority to enforce and has done a good job!

NR40: Wisconsin’s invasive species rule (2009)
New law created in 2009 by WI DNR
Prohibited species– are not yet in the state or only exist as small
populations
Restricted species– are invasive species that are already too widespread to
expect statewide eradicated.

NR40 Wisconsin’s invasive species rule (2009)
Prohibited species– It is illegal for people to transport, import, possess,
transfer, sell and introduce these species without a permit.
– Landowners will be expected to control prohibited species found on their property.
Restricted species– it is illegal for people to transport, import, transfer,
sell and introduce these species, but people may possess plants.

Step 2: Determine population size
Important for determining best management Small infestations
– Choose options that are effective
Large infestations– Choose options that are
• Fit management objectives, effective, affordable• Minimize injury to other plants/environment• Can repeat for many years to accomplish goal

Prevention
• Washing equipment to remove soil and plant parts from infested areas
• Use of weed free inputs:– hay and straw– free gravel, fill, top soil– compost
• Keep adjacent areas weed free
![Page 73: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
Manipulation of the environment
• Competition/prevention in establishment– Desirable plants compete
with weeds• Changing management can
reduce invasives– See example
![Page 74: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
Manipulation of the environmentan example
• Increasing grass cover in fall can reduce germination invasives (burdock, thistle seedlings)
• Mowed in October, compared– Mow 4” = 10 weeds/10 ft2
– Mow 8” inches = 3 weeds/10 ft2
75% light interception
20% lightinterception
![Page 75: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
Mowing
• Can effectively reduce production of seeds
• Specific to weed species– Annuals and Biennial:
• reduce population sizes if timed correctly and conducted for multiple years
– Perennials: • typically need additional management to
reduce populations
![Page 76: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
Grazing• Can suppress growth of weeds if
timed correctly– Same timing and effectiveness as
mowing except for palatability– Palatability is dependent on stage of
growth, animal• BUT ANIMALS CAN BE TRAINED
• Promotes grasses to be more competitive
![Page 77: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
Biological control of weeds• Definition: the use of natural enemies to reduce the
damage caused by a pest population • GOAL: Reduce the populations (not eliminate)• Introduced agents: Not native to area
(REGULATED)• Natural agents: native to area (NOT
REGULATED)
![Page 78: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
Applications of herbicides
• Broadcast applications
• Directed methods/ Individual plant treatments (IPT)– Spot treatment– Basal bark applications– Cut stump
![Page 79: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
Using Herbicides
• One of many tools• Many aspects to safe and effective use• Consider location, site characteristics,
environmental setting, etc.• May be cheapest method but may not be the
appropriate choice in some cases
![Page 80: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
Herbicide Use Tips• Read and follow label directions on all chemicals.
– Use correct rates– Calibrate your sprayer
• Be sure that chemicals are mixed thoroughly • Never spray when it is windy• Spray only the targeted area• Be aware of properties of herbicides
– Some volatize when air temperatures are > 80F.– Some persist in the soil for extended periods– Some are selective herbicides others are not– Some may leach into the water table
![Page 81: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
Contact Herbicides
• Are not translocated• Kill only what is
treated• Give no residual
control = chemical mowers
• Examples:– Herbicidal soaps
(salts+fatty acids)– Vinegar (acetic acid)
![Page 82: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)

Herbicide typesSelectivity
• Nonselective (Example glyphosate/Roundup)– Will injure any plant it contacts
• Selective (2,4-D)– Won’t harm grasses– Won’t harm broadleaved species– Random selectivity
![Page 84: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
Herbicide typesResidual activity
• No residual (hours- 1 day)• Example: Roundup (glyphosate)
• Short residual (days to weeks)• Example: 2,4-D, Banvel, Garlon, Weedmaster
• Long lasting=soil sterilant (months – years)• Example: Tordon (Picloram), Arsenal (Imazapyr)

Methods of Herbicide Application
• Soil applications• Foliar applications
– spot or broadcasted• To stems
– basal bark, cut stump, hack and squirt
FOR ANY HERBICIDE TO WORK MUST BE TAKEN UP INTO THE PLANT
![Page 86: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
Methods of Applicationfoliar treatments
• Can be applied to individual plants– Apply to foliage, but NOT so it “runs off” leaves/stems
• Can be broadcasted– most cost effective for large populations
• Use lower rates on smaller plants and less dense populations
• KEY POINTS:• Weeds must be actively growing• Rainfall may reduce effect (1/4-1/2 day) • Higher rates can reduce control (read label)• Surfactants can help (read label)
![Page 87: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)
Methods of ApplicationBasal bark
• Apply herbicide in a ring around lower 6-18” of stem
• Practical on woody species 5” or less in diameter
• Solutions have high concentration of herbicide– Most use basal bark oil as a carrier
• Apply so bark shines/glistens• Do not apply when excessive
Snow present!
![Page 88: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/88.jpg)
Methods of Applicationcut surface/stump
• Solutions have high concentration of herbicide
• Cut a stem near the base, treat soon after cutting
• Water-based formulations ASAP• Oil-based formulations within the
a day of cutting
• Treat entire surface if small, outer part of cut surface and root collar
• Do not apply when excessive snow present or heavy sap flow in spring!

Timing the ApplicationANNUALS, BIENNIALS & NONWOODY
PERENNIALS
• Annuals and biennials most sensitive when young and small
• Biennials easily killed as seedlings and anytime while in rosette stage
• Perennials often best treated in bud to early flower stage or in fall prior to frost– Varies considerably with plant species
![Page 91: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/91.jpg)
Timing the ApplicationWOODY PERENNIALS
Woody plant control– Foliar applications best in late spring - early
summer• Leaves fully expanded• Plants actively growing
– Cut stump and basal bark treatments effective throughout the year
![Page 92: Renz Advanced MG invasive plant training · Glossy buckthorn (CV) Helleborine orchid Hemp nettle, brittlestem hemp nettle Hound's tongue Japanese knotweed Leafy spurge Morrow's honeysuckle](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081402/5f1550a585154506835ce7a3/html5/thumbnails/92.jpg)
Summary• Invasive plant management is species specific
• Develop a plan to manage invasive plants
• Consult an expert or factsheets about selecting an appropriate control option
• No one option will work under all situations, and often an integrated approach works the best.
