AQUATIC NOXIOUS WEED CONTROL
Aquatic Weed Control specializes in the control and disposal of aquatic noxious weeds in the Pacific Northwest. These weeds interfere with swimming, boating and fishing. They may not be native to the region and harm the environment by choking out native water plants, fish and other marine life.
Our professional teams reclaim water properties affected by these destructive weeds, employing a variety of environmentally sensible methods.
We perform a cost effective, lasting, and practical solution to your aquatic weed problem while working being compliant with local, state, and federal regulations.

Residential
Homeowners have not had an effective means of fighting infestation of their waterfront by aquatic weeds (usually milfoil or lily pads). They have tried raking them or dragging chains over the weed bed to break off the weeds. Besides being difficult, these methods just worsen the problem because each fragment of milfoil is capable of rerooting as a new plant. The result is increased weed proliferation and the spread of the weed problem to adjoining properties.
Eventually the weeds win and life along the water loses much of it attraction. Few people enjoy swimming in weeds. Jet ski intakes and boat propellers become fouled. Sport fishing declines as the milfoil kills off the natural habitat.
Aquatic Weed Control offers cost effective solutions to homeowners.
Bottom Barrier installations are a common proactive mechanical control technique. They prevents the weeds from getting light. Then then they die and decay under the barrier. Using our six years of experience using benthic barriers, Aquatic Weed Control has developed a proprietary panel system to make installation and maintenance of the barrier much more effective. Our panel system allow for better installation, inspection, and maintenance programs.
