If invasive species are not detected early and eradicated, then costly long term management is
required.
Examples of this are partnerships where Biosecurity Queensland, Noosa Council and landowners
have been successful in eradicating several potentially invasive species from the shire. Water
mimosa (Neptunia oleracea), Senegalia spp., Madras thorn (Pithecellobium dulce) and Parthenium
(Parthenium hysterophorus) were reported to Council by landowners and were eradicated through
herbicide treatment and mechanical removal. Without early detection, reporting and timely
eradication there would have been potentially significant impacts for landowners and costly
ongoing management.
