Kudzu was introduced to the US to help control erosion, and it is growing out of control in many parts of the Southeast. Are there any "good" invasive species?
Answer:
It all depends on what you classify as "good". If you mean good for people, then invasive species such as honey bees and earthworms are good. On the other hand, if you asked the native organisms that they compete with, you might get a different answer. Not all invasive species were introduced by people. The Earth has a long history of species moving into new areas and taking over.
