Ireland has a rich natural heritage — from the sandbanks of the Shannon Estuary to the fens of Monaghan… from the natterjack toad to the Atlantic salmon… from the Killarney fern to the freshwater pearl mussel.

Emerging invasive species event

20th October 2011

The methods for the management and control of a large number of invasive species, such as Japanese Knotweed and Floating Pennywort, is well known. However, increasingly there are a number of new invasive species that are proving to be difficult to control, such as the Water Primrose (Ludwigia grandiflora).

This event will explore some of the more troublesome non native invasive species found in the UK, and how best to control them.

Registration for this event will be open shortly.
