Cassia County 5 Worst Noxious Weeds

Land owner responsibilities and Noxious Weed Control.

If you are a landowner, it pays to know your noxious weeds. It is also important that you monitor your property regularly. Noxious weeds can rapidly spread from a small problem that is easily and/or cheaply controlled, to one that is not!
In some situations, the cost of controlling a heavy infestation of some weeds exceeds the value, and/or potential income of the land itself.
These are the five weeds that are most likely to cause problems to a landowner in Cassia County. These noxious weeds invade by windblown seeds, or through creeping roots. These weeds will “take over” and cause real problems if left untreated, and they can be very expensive to control.
You, the landowner, are responsible for the cost of controlling the noxious weeds on your property. Early treatments, if problems arise, are by far the most economical solution.
