Zebra mussels have invaded in Minnesota’s Little Boy Lake. Officials state removal is unfeasible and at present require tighter inspections of docks, boat lifts and second‑hand boats. In Greece, invasive pufferfish are advancing through waterways, hurting fishermen and local ecosystems. Australia’s property market is feeling the pressure as a rapidly spreading weed lowers home values and increases clean‑up costs.
