Of course, it is essential to develop methods that are more effective than chemical agents and have lower environmental technologies must not remain mere fantasies of researchers, however. It is the responsibility of the researchers involved in invasive species control to create realistic technologies and plans that are implementable in society, taking into account cost-effectiveness as well. impacts.
