In the municipality of Uetikon am See, we are committed to preserving valuable nature conservation areas. Our efforts focus on combating invasive plant species that threaten native ecosystems and endanger biodiversity.

The areas affected are diverse: rough pastures, dry stone walls, hedges, orchards and parks, but also particularly sensitive zones around a waterfall in the forest. Here, it is important to take targeted and gentle action against problematic plants such as the annual weed, vinegar tree, Canadian goldenrod, bamboo and summer lilac.

Our work helps to strengthen the natural vegetation and preserve this valuable habitat for native plants and animals.
