 Focus on Noxious Weeds
Noxious weeds are invasive plants not native to North America. Many of them, like spotted knapweed and leafy spurge occur in large infestations across the state. Noxious weed infestations decrease agricultural production and reduce forage for wildlife, increase erosion along streams and rivers, and decrease recreational activities.
Think you spot a noxious weed? Check the Weed ID Guide.
To report a suspected infestation of noxious weeds, contact your local county weed district or the Montana Department of Agriculture.
Montana Invasive Species Council
The Montana Invasive Species Council (MISC) is a statewide partnership working to protect Montana’s economy, natural resources, and public health through a coordinated approach to combat invasive species.
MISC and our partners urge all Montanans to share this information widely and take these simple measures to be informed, attentive, and accountable for preventing the spread of terrestrial and aquatic invasive species.
