They might outcompete native species for resources.

are you sure?

I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. The correct negative issue that an invasive species might present, aside from killing native species, is that they might outcompete native species for resources. Thank you for pointing that out.

so they would avoid other species?

No, invasive species often outcompete native species for resources, which can lead to declines in the native populations. They do not typically avoid interacting with other species, but rather compete with them for things like food, habitat, and space.
