Chemical control methods involve the use of chemical substances, such as pesticides or herbicides, to manage pest populations. Option A, the use of predators, is a biological control method and involves the use of natural enemies to control pest populations. Option B, manual removal of invasive species, is considered a physical or mechanical control method.

Hence, option C is the only correct response that specifically includes the use of chemicals to control pests.
