Noxious Weeds
Many noxious weeds started out as garden favorites. In perfect conditions certain plants can thrive and eventually become invasive weeds that overrun our parks, trails, lakes and waterways. For more information on what you can do to help stop noxious weeds contact the King County noxious weed control program.
