The base, instead of unleashing chemicals or machinery on the invasive weeds, has turned to the indiscriminate eaters. Fenced in a half-acre hillside plot, 60 goats have been devouring the yellow-flowered invaders from southern Europe since last Monday. They've nubbed the aggressive invaders from Europe down to wiry stalks, consuming the seed pods, the flowers — next year's seeds — and most of the foliage.

Dunakin, whose burgeoning herd now numbers 114, ventured off the island 1 1/2  
years ago and the business took off. She has rented the goats to the University 
of Washington, ports of Tacoma and Everett, school districts and private homes.
