once again, some people advocate mechanical removal of an invasive species; others advocate using natural means, whether it's an insect or a fish or something to help control an invasive species. Some offer that there are chemical means for dealing with those. But unless we come together on a bill like this, bringing all the different entities with all the difference weapons at their command, we are not going to be able to control some of these species.
