If the aliens had the technology to build, transport and bury their tripods on Earth before there were any people living here, why didn't they just take the planet then?

Um, I think they needed the huge population to use as fertilizer for that creepy red weed.

The spraying and the red weed was pretty disturbing. Those Tripod things were crazy. Great sound they make.

good luck finding a dino 1 million years ago boys

Oh, I had a thought. They could have possibly been waiting for the population to be right for the picking. Humans  on a grand scale (especially the urban variety on a whole)are a lot more easily caught and harvested than any wild animals.
