@ACTBio-security will you take care of these before the seeds ripen? You could make a day of it and set a record for the number of invasive woody weed species controlled in a day.

Thank you for reporting. The Biosecurity team went out and treated the site today. We will continue to monitor the site.

Great response! The next level is to get rid of invasive plants before I find them :)
