Abstract

Invasive species, known as non-native species, are a significant global challenge due to their influences on ecosystems, economies, and human health. The mechanisms enabling these species to establish, spread, and disrupt ecological balance, emphasizing the importance of understanding their pathways, stages of invasion, impacts and provides a foundational understanding of invasive species. A detailed examination of the mechanisms facilitating invasion and give invasive species a viable edge over native flora. It also highlights the significant impacts like invasive plants modifying natural habitats. Recent studies highlight the importance in combating specific invasions and concludes that proper management and control measures, advocating for a proactive approach that combines prevention, early detection, and rapid response. Integrated strategies, such as biological control, habitat restoration, and public education, are emphasized as vital tools for mitigating the impacts of invasive species and protect global biodiversity in an increasingly interconnected and changing world.
