Invasive Alien Species (IAS) have been an increasing subject of concern with their growing speed of spread and increasing impacts on the invaded areas. The sustainability of IAS control, that is, how to make managing IAS most economical, human, and environmentally efficient is currently an issue under discussion. This review catalogs the general aspects of invasive species, from their natural spread to human-induced causes such as how it is spread through cross-sea and cross-border trades, affected by artificial constructions such as dams and reservoirs, agriculture, climate change, and deliberate introduction. The review also analyzed how IAS causes harm to the ecosystem and human community, what harm it causes, and how humans manage these invaders. Thus, providing a foundation for future research regarding the sustainability of the management of invasive alien species.
