I feel the association needs to look outside the box and get away from chemical treatments. Look at Lake Bomoseen they use no chemicals and only harvest and they have success controlling milfoil. They just purchased a new harvester that bags. The cut weeds why did we not get our head out of the sand and look for other methods!!
I do not agree with last comment! I lived on Bomoseen going back 40 years. We saw week harvesters and saw chemicals. The weed cutter just cut weeds and they floated to shore and regenerated. then a messy pile of dead weeds everywhere on the shore. The only way weeds were controlled for any length of time was with chemicals, with no detriment to the water or shore that I could detect. I’m totally or the bio-chemicals.
Are there any further treatments scheduled as I have a family reunion planned for the second week of July?
There are no further treatments planned.
how is the location for treatment decided. what is cost and what does the state pay for
Treatment was decided on by the LHPOA board from recommendations made by Aquatic Nuisance Control board committee and upon approval from state DEC based on plant survey done by Darrin Freshwater Institute. Please see http://www.lakehortonia.org for map of treatment area.
