We have a new Report a Noxious Weed form available online. Please provide a location and in-focus, close-up photos of the flowers and leaves. Also please show scale in at least one photo with a standard-sized object such as a coin. We will prioritize responding to reports that include photos.
Due to current staffing shortages, Clark County will provide reduced weed free forage inspections for the foreseeable future. Please call as far ahead of cutting time as possible, and if we are unable to help you in time, please refer to the WSDA website for more information about using state inspectors.
Clark County Noxious Weed Management is responsible, by state law, for controlling noxious weeds in Clark County. It is made up of five members of the Clark County Weed Board, appointed by the Clark County Council.
