Keep on the look out. Photo in the link. If you see it call it in to the Dept. of Ag or DNLR. They will dress up in contamination gear and remove it.

Chromolaena odorata, a noxious and invasive “Devil Weed”, has been discovered for the first time on Hawaiʻi island.
The plant is listed as a Noxious Weed in the state of Hawai’i and is designated as one of the world’s 100 worst invasive species by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN). An aggressive colonizer of clearings that can also spread into wet forests, devil weed creates an ecological nuisance, creating dense thickets up to six feet in height that impede growth and regeneration of native species. Additionally, devil weed is toxic to livestock and aggressively invades pastures, and has caused severe damage to ranchers and farmers in areas where it has become widely spread.
