Habitat Modification

Habitat modification involves making changes to an environment to influence the presence or behavior of certain species. This can include altering landscape features, removing or adding plants, or changing structures to reduce the attractiveness or suitability for pests or animals that may cause issues. The goal is often to prevent problems like pest infestations, promote the health of desired species, or reduce conflicts between humans and wildlife. Effective habitat modification considers the ecosystem's balance and aims for sustainable, targeted changes that support safety and ecological health.
