Invasive Species Campaigns

Invasive species campaigns help spread the word about the impacts of invasive species and what people can do to prevent their spread. Below is a list of some invasive species campaigns — click “Learn More” for additional information, including educational materials and links to partner websites.

Clean, Drain, Dry

Clean, drain, and dry your boat, trailer, and gear every time you leave a body of water.

Don’t Let it Loose

Do not release plants or animals into the environment. They can displace our native wildlife.

Don’t Move Firewood

Always use local firewood to avoid moving invasive wood boring pests, such as emerald ash borer, in from out of state.

Play, Clean, Go

Do you like to camp, hike, run, bike, bird, or hunt? Make sure you clean your gear to avoid moving invasive species!

Don’t Pack a Pest

Some food & plant items are not allowed to enter the U.S. when you return from a trip because they may bring animal diseases or plant pests. Always declare food, plants, and agricultural items.
