U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Chelsea Bohaty, invasive species management biologist holds the invasive aquatic alligator weed found in Lake Woodruff, on the Lake Woodruff National Wildlife Refuge, in Deland, Florida. The alligator weed has invaded many water systems in the South and is slowly working its way westward. The alligator flea beetle is one of the methods that the Corps uses to control the invasive alligator weed. This invasive plant blocks transportation routes, threatens native species, and reduces water capacity in our reservoirs. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Invasive Management Species Branch is committed to providing technical support for the control of invasive species in our national and regional ecosystem restoration program.
