Aquatics

Lakes and ponds are attractive, beneficial features of an outdoor environment for providing a suitable habitat for aquatic wildlife, so it’s crucial to have the right aquatic herbicide on hand for reliable aquatic care. By treating bodies of water properly, you can manage or prevent large infestations that may become problematic for the wildlife inhabiting your bodies of water.

It’s no secret that aquatic weeds are actually helpful to fish and wildlife in most bodies of water. Weeds and algae are excellent for filtration and double as a food source for such animals. However, when pond weeds grow excessively and infest lakes and ponds, many problems are waiting to arise.

Lack of sunlight; reduced living space; nutrient reduction— the list goes on! Prevent severe damage and serious problems for wildlife by choosing the right pond weed and algae killer for the job.

Before applying aquatic herbicide, it’s essential to inspect the body of water to discover what kind of aquatic weeds are causing interference.

When doing your inspection, walk around the body of water and take note of what appears to be floating, protruding out of the water, or submerged underneath the surface. You should be looking for one of four (or a combination) of weed types within or around the water.

There are four groups of weeds that are commonly found around lakes and ponds. Thus, different kinds of liquid and granular algaecide and herbicides are required to treat these various types of aquatic weeds appropriately. The four groups of weeds include:

• Algae- Commonly called slime, moss, or pond scum, algae is found either on the water’s surface or at the bottom of the pond.

• Floating Weeds- As the name implies, these weeds float on the water’s surface. The weeds do not have roots, thus moving rapidly and freely around the water.

• Submerged Weeds- This weed type is found rooted at the bottom of lakes and ponds.
• Emergent Weeds- Found above the surface of the water, emergent weeds commonly grow around shorelines and support themselves.

If not controlled and managed, these types of weeds can have a negative impact on the body of water they’re infiltrating. If a severe infestation occurs, you’re sure to deal with things like blocked sunlight and oxygen depletion.
