Abstract Invasive plants create refuge habitat for predators that results in increased levels of seed predation on native plants. We test the effects of a large‐scale removal of the invasive plant Ammophila arenaria on the predispersal seed predation rate experienced by an endangered plant in a coastal dune ecosystem. Restoration resulted in a large and lasting reduction in seed predation in this system, and reducing predation could be an explicit goal in future restoration projects. The generalized linear mixed statistical model with a BACI (before‐after‐control‐impact) design used here is a useful, flexible model that can be applied to analyze other large‐scale restoration activities.
