Currently, the small fenced areas are weeded, and large scale control of Kahili ginger is occurring throughout the island. Incipient weeds are eradicated by the Kauai Invasive Species Committee and the Kokee Resource Conservation Program controls weeds within the Kokee and Na Pali state parks. Weed control of targeted species is planned by the KWA for the most invasive weed species. |

Control of alien plants is an ongoing task that may be reduced to low maintenance and monitoring levels, but will never be completely eradicated, especially as new pest plant species are continually introduced to Hawaii and can become established in natural areas. Effective control methods are continually being developed by the Invasive Species Committees on each island and the results are applied to other natural areas of similar habitat. |
