PREVENTION

Based on the premise that weeds that are never planted will never need to be controlled, the District will work to prevent the introduction of new harmful species into the county, or the spread of these species into areas of the county they do not currently inhabit. Prevention saves time and money in the long run and reduces the negative or non-target consequences of control activity.

The primary preventive techniques are public education, certified weed free hay, good seed laws, quarantine, and early detection on new infestations coupled to rapid response.
