Several eradication teams like this.

This crew killed more then 50,000 Miconia trees in a single day.

Can you imagine what several of these crews could do over ... say a 10 year period?

Cost estimate... $4 million per year.

Jobs created: Estimated 1000 Guava Whackers.

We don't hear much grumbling about Miconia much anymore.[]

According to This 2004 starbulletin article, Strawberry Guava isn't even listed as one of the least wanted species in Hawaii.[?][^]
