Use natural enemies to manage widespread weeds in the Pacific

Available Online

We are a diverse bunch of people in the Pacific region, which spans about one third of the earth's surface and encompasses about half of the global sea surface. Natural enemies can be used to restore natural balance between weeds and the environment by introducing the enemies where they are needed.

Protect our islands with biosecurity

Available Online

Many invasive plants are successful by producing large numbers of seeds easily transported by wind, water and animals. However invasions are started almost exclusively through the actions of people.

Build resilient ecosystems and communities by managing invasive species in high-priority sites

Available Online

Invasive species are leading driver of biodiversity loss in the Pacific. They impact ecosystem resilience, ecosystem services and the future ability to adapt to climate change.

Manage low-incidence priority weeds to conserve Pacific biodiversity

Available Online

A weed is any plant that is in the wrong place and requires action to reduce its effect on the economy, environment, human health or amenity. Weeds are also known as invasive plants.

Share Pacific invasive species data using the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF)

Available Online

The Invasive Species Battler series has been developed to share what we have learned about common invasive species issues in the region. They are not intended to cover each issue in depth but to provide information and case-studies that can assist you to make a decision about what to do next or where to go for further information.

Removing rodents from small tropical islands with success

Island and Ocean Ecosystems

Available Online

SPREP

While eradication projects on large islands require substantial funding and a high level of technical and logistical support, projects on small islands are much simpler and can achieve success with much less funding and outside assistance. The Pacific has thousands of such islands that can contribute to significant biodiversity outcomes. The purpose of this guide is to assist the practitioner in removing invasive rodents from small islands (less than 20 hectares) where access to all parts of the island is possible. These guidelines are designed to be used in conjunction with the resource 'Use anticoagulant rodent bait safely'. Thanks to our partner Island Conservation, who drafted this guide following the successful removal of rodents on Motutapu and Malinoa islands in the Kingdom of Tonga.

Use anticoagulant rodent bait safely

Available Online

SPREP

Anticoagulant rodenticides are an important tool for managing rodents by increasing the chances of success and lowering the resources required. This guide was developed to assist non-specialists in gaining a better understanding of the risks, costs, and benefits of using anticoagulant rodenticides. Everyone has a role to play in ensuring that rodenticides are used responsibly and that the risk of negative impacts to people and the environment is minimised. Failure to do so could result in the loss of support for the use of these useful tools.
