Controlling Invasive Species Through Ongoing Stewardship

Tired of being unable to admire the natural beauty your native oak trees from behind that wall of buckthorn? Do you want to finally put an end to purple loosestrife diverting water flow from your area wetlands? Are you trying to restore a native prairie but can’t seem to fully remove teasel, thistle, and other invasive weeds?

In many cases, controlling invasive plant species can feel like a losing battle. But keeping invasive plant species under control isn’t a battle, it’s a war. Native ecosystems are surrounded by species of non-native plants whose seeds are easily spread by the wind, people, and area wildlife. Without ongoing stewardship, invasive plant species are bound to return and take root again.

At Tallgrass Restoration, LLC, we use scientifically advanced, environmentally friendly landscaping practices to remove and control non-native invasive plant species from a wide variety of ecosystems. We provide our clients with cost-effective solutions for ongoing stewardship. Our company is fully licensed, bonded, and insured in:

• Illinois
• Indiana
• Michigan
• North Dakota
• Wisconsin

Our team of professional ecologists will assess your site’s natural landscaping and use the information to develop and coordinate an effective invasive species control and removal plan that’s specific to your site’s ecosystem. We take the time to educate our clients about their site’s natural resources to ensure our clients understand how our customized plan will work for their site.

We use an array of environmentally friendly strategies and techniques to control invasive species through ongoing stewardship, including:

• Herbicide application
• Mowing
• Native plant installation
• Prescribed burning
• Tree and brush removal

After removing the invasive plant species, our ecologists use planting and seeding to reestablish the native plant community at your site. Ongoing land stewardship is essential to preventing the return of invasive plant species and the key to maintaining a healthy and diverse ecosystem.

We’ll help you restore the beauty, health, and integrity to your site’s natural resources.
