English ivy was introduced to North America during the earliest days of colonialism (Centre for Agriculture and Bioscience International, 2018) and has become increasingly problematic in natural and human-altered landscapes throughout the Metro Vancouver region. Ivy spreads vegetatively and by seed and it tolerates a wide range of soil, moisture and light conditions. It is still commonly grown and sold as an ornamental plant and valued for its hardy, attractive, evergreen groundcover. Ivy’s ability to take over forest understories, suppress the growth of native species, and alter the tree canopy makes it a serious invader. |

It is found twining around other plants and
structures, often forming a tangled mass. It is a persistent plant that spreads by underground stems and roots that can resprout from fragments left in the soil. |
Reed Canarygrass Best Management Practices - August 2021 | 144544 | | | 9/29/2021 4:39:44 PM | | 2741 | http://www.metrovancouver.org/services/regional-planning/PlanningPublications/Forms/AllItems.aspx | pdf | False | pdf | | | | http://www.metrovancouver.org/services/regional-planning/_layouts/15/WopiFrame.aspx?sourcedoc=%2Fservices%2Fregional%2Dplanning%2FPlanningPublications%2FReedCanarygrassBMP%2Epdf&action=interactivepreview | http://www.metrovancouver.org/services/regional-planning/_layouts/15/WopiFrame.aspx?sourcedoc=%2Fservices%2Fregional%2Dplanning%2FPlanningPublications%2FReedCanarygrassBMP%2Epdf&action=imagepreview | The status of reed canarygrass is complicated – there has been confusion about whether the species is entirely introduced or whether it is native to the Pacific Northwest and has expanded its range through human intervention. |

It has now escaped into natural habitats throughout Metro Vancouver and the Pacific Northwest, largely due to illegal green waste dumping, particularly from
hanging baskets. |

Vancouver, reviewing the efficacy, challenges, and considerations of targeted grazing
treatments for control of invasive plants. Fourteen targeted grazing practitioners were
interviewed to assess the operational feasibility of targeted grazing treatments. Seven target

of targeted grazing versus other control treatments, comparing efficacy and costs.
Recommended approaches for effective control of each species were provided. |

They were introduced to British Columbia starting in the 1930s as a delicacy for human
consumption (BC Frogwatch, 1993). They have since escaped or have been released into natural areas in western North America (SeaGrant, 2020). Their high reproductive rate, limited predation, and ability to thrive in human disturbed habitats have allowed these invasive amphibians to establish and spread quickly (SeaGrant, 2020). |

Polygon delineation relied primarily on 2009 orthophoto imagery. An update to that inventory was conducted in 2015-2018 using 2014 imagery. The purpose of the update was primarily to document ecosystem losses over the five-year period (2009-2014). Additionally, the update incorporated new mapping and fieldwork, and made corrections where necessary. Updating the SEI will ensure it continues to be an effective and relevant land use and conservation planning tool for the region. |

They are often spread through human activities, nesting in garden and landscape materials. These ants react quickly and aggressively to defend their nest. With their distinctive swarming and stinging behaviour, they are one
of the most concerning invasive species in the region. |
