Is your waterfront property covered in aquatic plants that are inhibiting your use of the water? Aquatic weeds can negatively affect recreation, as well as your safety. Furthermore, these plants can destroy habitats for native plants, fish, and other wildlife.
Lakeland Restoration performs safe and effective herbicide treatments to control invasive and nuisance aquatic plants for homeowners and residents along waterfront property. Nuisance and invasive plants can be controlled to provide safe swimming, boating and recreation. This approach to lake management increases property values in neighborhoods, and all across the board.
A 2003 University of New Hampshire analysis indicated that infestations of an exotic aquatic weed, specifically variable milfoil (Myriophyllum heterophyllum), may reduce lakefront property values by as much as 20-40% as compared to similar properties on lakes without milfoil. Our liquid application techniques are effective and accurate. The ability of airboats to apply the product close to shore and around obstacles allows the product to contact the entire water column along the shoreline, keeping the herbicide in proximity to the plant longer.
