Firm, BioInvaders, Achieves a Dozen Invasive Species Products in Marketplace, Restores Four Ecosystems in Process

Houston, TX, October 24, 2012 --(PR.com)-- BioInvaders first brought you the Invasive Species Marketplace with the promise of removing invasive species from the environment and turning them into science products. The corporation has accomplished just that in six short months by using crowd-sourcing to find collectors of non-native species who identified, collected, sacrificed, preserved, and prepared for shipment alien invaders on the firm’s website www.bioinvaders.com. Now BioInvaders can boast a dozen sustainable products with the ongoing process by which they were created accomplishing ecosystem restoration.

In the early going of operations, BioInvaders has measured over one thousand seven hundred visitors, based purely on cookies, to the website. “We’re getting an incredible amount of traffic from the United States where awareness of invasive species issues prevails. Likewise, we’ve gotten a lot of English language traffic from every habitable continent on Earth, and we’ve made a Google language translation button available on the homepage,” said BioInvaders’ President Brett Scott. He continued, “We want to proliferate knowledge and access to a marketplace of invasive species across the planet. We’re doing just that.”

BioInvaders boasts a crowd-sourced man-power operation consisting of four collectors in different states all across the United States. The firm is accomplishing habitat restoration in Georgia, Florida, California, and Texas. “Where there is a high population base, there is high traffic to our website. It takes a certain number of visitors to achieve conversion into one becoming a collector: about 500 to 1. So driving traffic to the website becomes paramount in achieving our goals,” commented Scott. The firm tracks all visitors and customers on the website and maps them to better illustrate the power of crowd-sourcing as applied to invasive species amelioration.

All of this sustainable operation has produced a dozen sustainable products. The firm’s core business is invasive species laboratory specimens, and they have nine species available as teaching specimens currently. “We have fish, The Mayan Cichlid (Cichlasoma urophthalmus) and The Sucker Fish (Hypostomus plecostomus) which were both collected in Cape Coral, Florida, USA. We also have insects, The Mealworm Beetle (Tenebrio molitor), The Sri Lanka Weevil (Myllocerus undecimpustulatus undatus marshall), and our first insect The Kudzu Stink Bug (Megacopta cribraria) which were collected in California, Florida, and Georgia respectively. There is the lizard, The Brown Anole (Anolis sagrei) found in Texas and Florida. We are out of stock of both the American Bullfrog and the Giant African Snail,” Scott described. BioInvaders also makes Biodiversity Exchange Credits and Instructions for Investigating the Species they provide as teaching specimens.

BioInvaders has really seized on a wide open opportunity for achieving global habitat restoration. BioInvaders President Brett Scott summarized, “We have a moral and logical imperative to do what we are doing. Rationality, ethics, and truth govern our actions.” Perhaps, the President’s conclusions are in the clouds, but maybe BioInvaders uber-collector Bill Bryant puts it best, “...and the way the laws are, it is illegal to release non native species, so technically, if you catch a non native species, you can’t release it.” Exactly, so submit your invasive species to be put up for sale in the BioInvaders Invasive Species Marketplace, www.bioinvaders.com , or buy a specimen from them. Either way, protect the environment.
