Florida is known for having thousands of invasive species that affect it’s natural habitats. In order to prevent this from happening, the National Park Service and The U.S. Department of Interior have made the following recommendations:

1. Avoid disturbance to natural areas, including clearing of native vegetation, planting of non-native plants, and dumping of yard wastes.
2. Do not purchase or use invasive exotic species in your landscaping or for land restoration or erosion control projects.
3. For landscaping only use plants that are native to your local region or those that are not known to be invasive.
