Weeds and wild plants can be affected by pests, such as insects. However many wild plants have a natural resistance, or resilience against predators, which they have gained through years of natural selection and adaption.
Wild plants protect themselves in the following ways:
1. Plants produce chemicals which repel or poison insects.
2. Plants produce chemicals designed to reduce palatability.
3. Plants have a thick waxy cuticle covering soft tissues, such a leaves, which acts as a physical barrier against predation.
