GARLIC MUSTARD

Submitted by wade on Fri, 05/25/2012 - 13:37

IF YOU GO OUT TO MC TO RIDE AND WANT TO PICK SOME GARLIC MUSTARD WHILE YOU ARE OUT, THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!! JUST PULL THE PLANT NEAR THE ROOT AND PLACE IN A PLASTIC BAG. YOU CAN PLACE THE BAGS BY THE NEW OM TOOL SHED AND WEIGH IT DOWN WITH A ROCK. WE WILL BURN THE PLANT LATER.

THANKS FOR THE HELP!!

Ecological Threat:

Garlic mustard spreads into high quality woodlands upland and floodplain forests, not just into disturbed areas.
Invaded sites undergo a decline on native herbaceous cover within 10 years.
Garlic mustard alters habitat suitability for native insects and thereby birds and mammals.
This European exotic occurs now in 27 midwestern and northeastern states and in Canada
