Why are invasive species dangerous?

They can affect the chemical makeup of the water, availability of resources, and even alter the food web. Invasive species impact other species more directly through competition for resources. Because invasive species evolved with other competitors and native species evolved in the absence of invasive species they lack the ability to compete with invasive species. They are costly to society in many ways through both, direct management, and decreased production. The annual estimated cost in the United States of invasive species control is about 120 billion dollars per year. It is estimated that the global cost of invasive species management is equal to five percent of the global economy.
