An important note about pricing. In 2024, Waterford Press began implementing the first price increase since 2016. This change will affect only folding pocket guides priced at $7.95 at this time. The new retail price, at $8.95, is on par with other guides in this format. Many titles have already been printed and are in circulation with the new price. All other $7.95 titles will see the price change as they are reprinted over the next 12-18 months.
With its warm, humid climate, Florida is especially susceptible to the spread of invasive animals. Tremendous ecological and economic damage has been done by such species as Feral Pigs, Lionfish, Burmese Pythons, and Tegu lizards. To control invasives, early detection is critical, and this is made possible by having a well-informed public equipped with the necessary identification skills. Those looking to get better acquainted with the most familiar invasive animals in the Sunshine State will find this guide beneficial. Beautifully illustrated, it features 40 common species, as well as tips for controlling and containing them. Laminated for durability, this lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guide is an essential resource for educators, learners, naturalists, homeowners, and citizen scientists who wish to do their part to stop the spread of invasive animals in Florida, for the benefit of both the state’s humans and native wildlife populations. Made in the USA.
