Noxious Weed Control Boards

Noxious Weeds – Everybody’s Problem

Noxious weeds are highly invasive plant species that threaten our way of life. They can have an economic and environmental impact on agriculture, outdoor recreation, wildlife, native and natural lands, as well as being harmful to people or animals. Washington State recognizes the negative impact of these invaders and has created laws to prevent and control infestations. Local Noxious Weed Control Boards can help you identify, develop and implement control methods to eradicate and prevent the spread of noxious weeds.

Some WSU Extension websites provide links to external sites for the convenience of users. They may also provide page space to their county partners, county pest and disease boards and noxious weed control boards, that work with WSU Extension to help protect agricultural producers from damaging insects, plant diseases and noxious weeds.

These external sites and pages are not managed by WSU Extension. Furthermore, WSU Extension does not review, control or take responsibility for the content of these sites, nor do these sites implicitly or explicitly represent official positions, policies or recommendations of WSU Extension.
