G. aparine is often found in post-fire plant communities in the United States, likely developing from onsite seed and therefore rendering controlled burns as an ineffective means of removing G. aparine in areas where it is considered a noxious weed. [23] Geese frequently consume the plant, hence the common names "goosegrass". [24]
British NVC community OV24 (Urtica dioica - Galium aparine community) is one of the open habitat communities in the British National Vegetation Classification system. It is one of four tall-herb weed communities. This community occurs widely throughout lowland Britain and, if conditions are suitable, is also found in the upland fringes.
It is a plant parasite, or gall, found on cleaver (Galium aparine) and can be a potential biological control agent for false cleavers (Galium spurium), which is a noxious weed in many places. [ 1 ] References

Two constant species, Cleavers (Galium aparine) and Sea Mayweed (Matricaria maritima), are found in this community. Two rare species, Oysterplant (Mertensia maritima) and Ray's Knotgrass (Polygonum oxyspermum ssp. raii), are also associated with the community.
Galium is a large genus of annual and perennial herbaceous plants in the family Rubiaceae, occurring in the temperate zones of both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. Some species are informally known as bedstraw. [1] There are over 600 species of Galium, [2] with estimates of 629 [3] to 650 [4] as of 2013.
Galium verum ("lady's bedstraw") is the type species of the genus Galium. The genus Galium ( Rubiaceae ) contains around 650 species, [ 1 ] making it one of the largest genera of flowering plants . [ 2 ]
