Zebra mussels have invaded in Minnesota’s Little Boy Lake. Officials state removal is not possible and at present require tighter inspections of docks, boat lifts and second‑hand boats. In Greece, invasive pufferfish are advancing through waterways, endangering fishermen and local ecosystems. Australia’s property market is under strain as a rapidly spreading weed pushes down home values and escalates clean‑up costs.
