Invasive Plant Management
Invasive plants are one of the most common and damaging stressors in residential and woodland settings. They compete with native vegetation, degrade soil structure, and negatively impact tree health and regeneration.
Understory provides invasive plant management focused on identification, control, and long-term reduction. Our approach prioritizes mechanical removal, timing, and site-specific strategies to limit regrowth and protect desirable plants.
Identification and Assessment
Effective management begins with proper identification. We assess species, extent, site conditions, and adjacent vegetation to determine appropriate control strategies.
Mechanical and Manual Removal
We use targeted mechanical and hand removal methods to reduce invasive populations while minimizing disturbance. Removal strategies are selected based on species biology, growth stage, and site sensitivity.
Targeted Management Strategies
Not all invasive species are managed the same way. We tailor control methods to the plant, season, and site, with the goal of reducing reinfestation rather than repeated clearing
