What Do Your Local Taxes Support?
W**d & Pest
Local tax revenue helps fund w**d and pest districts that monitor infestations, coordinate treatment, employ trained personnel, maintain equipment, and work with landowners to manage invasive species.
Noxious w**ds and other invasive species can reduce agricultural productivity, displace native plants, damage wildlife habitat, and affect waterways. Certain invasive grasses can also increase wildfire risk. Addressing infestations early helps limit their spread and protect Wyoming’s lands, natural resources, and agricultural economy.
Funding and services vary by district. Visit your county w**d and pest district’s website or review its budget to learn how these services are funded in your community.
