Abstract
In the remainder of this paper I attempt to parse the successes and failures to seek guidance as to when eradication is feasible. Do common features characterise successful campaigns? Do similar problems plague many failures? At the outset, I emphasise that I am not addressing whether society as a whole wants a particular invader removed or even controlled. Often one faction wants to eliminate a species that others see as a boon – note the battle in Australia over Echium plantagineum, termer Paterson’s curse by ranchers and Salvation Jane by apiarists (Cullen and Delfosse 1985). Rather, assuming that society does want to control a particular species, I will askwhat is the best means.
