This <a href="/wiki/Water_fern" title="Water fern">water fern</a> is often grown as an ornamental plant but has escaped and become a noxious pest in many regions worldwide. There are a few different growth forms for <i>S. molesta</i>. The primary growth form is an invading form with small flat leaves to the tertiary or mat form with large, crowded, folded leaves. Under the best conditions plants can form a two-foot-thick mat. These mats can put a halt to recreational activities on lakes and waterways. <i>S. molesta</i> has been used to extract nutrients and pollutants from the water.

It prefers nutrient-rich waters such as those found in eutrophic water or those polluted by waste water. It does not usually grow in brackish or salty waters, but has been reported in streams with a tidal flow in southeast Texas. It copes well with <a href="/wiki/Dewatering" title="Dewatering">dewatering</a>, and while it prefers to grow in moderate temperatures, it will tolerate low or very high temperatures.

The plant's growth clogs waterways and blocks <a href="/wiki/Sunlight" title="Sunlight">sunlight</a> needed by other aquatic plants and especially <a href="/wiki/Algae" title="Algae">algae</a> to carry out photosynthesis, thereby deoxygenating the water.

This can kill any plants, insects, or fish trapped underneath its growth. </p><p>Its ability to grow and cover a vast area makes it a threat to biodiversity. Large infestations covering a wide area may also pose a problem to migratory birds, as they may not be able to recognise an infested waterway when flying overhead, so may not stop at it. <i>S. molesta</i> provides ideal conditions for the breeding of mosquitoes that carry disease.
