You might have a curious plant in your yard or something by your lake home which looks wierd. Several Northwoods agencies are hosting an Invasive Species ID Day at various locations.
Vilas County Invasive Species Coordinator Cathy Higley says the public can bring in anything to be examined by an invasive species specialist...
"....if you're wondering, 'what is this?', you can bring it to one of those locations. We'll help ID it and give some background information on how it can affect your property or your lake...."
The Invasive Species ID Day is being held Friday, July 17 from 1 to 4 p.m. at Trig's stores in Rhinelander and Eagle River, Fleet Farm in Antigo, Cerny's Greenhouse in Tomahawk, or for WXPR's Ironwood listeners, the Great Lakes Visitor Center in Ashland.
Each location will offer some extras for people coming by with questions. Contact your county invasive species coordinators for more information.
