Stock the Great Lakes with alligators.
I thought diversity was a strength? Why exclude migrant fish. Sounds racist.

This is sort of like the history of Africanized Bees.
They were purposely bred in Brazil in the 1950’s and some escaped. They have been heading northbound ever since.

Screw worm fly was extirpated from the USA starting in the late 1950s by releasing swarms of radiation-sterilized males.
Shock the river with
DC voltage. The fish

We did this on our stock
ponds (using an old crank
style phone) to rid the
ponds of carp.
We contacted a fish biologist
while trying to figure out
how the carp infested the
ponds to begin with. The
culprit was birds with the
carp eggs sticking to the
bills and feet of the birds.
Then would land from pond
to pond, distributing the
carp eggs. We couldn’t stop
the birds, so we shocked
the ponds once a year.
We stocked the ponds with
bluegill and large mouth bass.
After a few minutes, the stocked
fish would “wake up” and swim off.
“Faced with the threat that Asian carp could enter the Great Lakes, Michigan is turning to the public for new ideas and plans to offer a prize to whoever comes up with a way to stop the voracious fish.”
Dump 50,000 truckloads of dirt/rocks in the Chicago locks so it no longer connects to Lake Michigan.
