Based on the collated evidence, what is the current assessment of the effectiveness of interventions for invasive species? |
|
Unknown effectiveness (limited evidence) |
● Remove invasive plant species |
Likely to be ineffective or harmful |
● Translocate to predator or disease free areas |
No evidence found (no assessment) |
● Control invasive predators |

Remove invasive plant species
1One site comparison study in North America found higher bat activity in forest preserves where invasive plant species had been removed alongside other restoration practices. Assessment: unknown effectiveness (effectiveness 20%; certainty 10%; harms 0%).

Likely to be ineffective or harmful
Translocate to predator or disease free areas
3Two small unreplicated studies in New Zealand and Switzerland found low numbers of bats remaining at release sites after translocation, and observed homing tendencies, disease and death. Assessment: Likely to be ineffective or harmful (effectiveness 5%; certainty 40%; harms 80%).
