Genetic modification is used to develop plant and animal species that have new traits.

What could be the best solution to prevent them from becoming an invasive species? 1. Use pest control. 2. Plant more native trees. 3. Develop plants that are unable to reproduce. 4. Regularly inspect invasive species.
