BIOCONTROLS
Invasive weed species in Douglas County pose significant challenges to local ecosystems, leading to the loss of wildlife habitat, reduced biodiversity, and increased costs to the agricultural community. Recognizing these threats, Foster Creek Conservation District (FCCD) partnered with Washington State University Extension in 2000 to identify the major invasive weeds within the county and implement effective, environmentally friendly control methods. One key approach is the use of biological control insects.
​
This collaborative effort helps landowners manage invasive species while protecting and restoring native plant communities across the county. By supporting biocontrol initiatives, FCCD and its partners continue to take proactive steps toward preserving the health of both agricultural lands and local ecosystems.
