They are invasive alien species, arriving by air, land and sea. Their goal: total domination. And if we don't act soon, it will be too late. If that sounds like the description of a cheesy horror movie – it's not. Just ask the good folks of Worcester, under siege by the Asian long horned beetle, and calling on smoke jumpers for help. Or travel to the North Shore, where an underwater blob is attacking the fishery. Tonight, Chronicle reports on the battle underway to stop these and other strange invaders.Show Resources:
