Texas Invasive Lake Weed Control Methods

Aquatic weed control types used in Texas ponds and lakes

This page offers general information on the types of treatments available for pond and lake managers in Texas, and links to more detailed discussions of each.

Prevention: This is the very best method for controlling any situation. If you can prevent it, you won't have to control it or manage it in other ways. It just makes sense.

Biological control: Most environmentally aware folks prefer biological controls to chemical controls. There are some problems with that idea. Biological controls can be unpredictable, and run the risk of getting out of control if conditions should change. After all, you are adding another invasive predator into the mix!

Mechanical control:Mechanical controls are great for some aquatic weed work, but not for all. Many aquatic weeds can reproduce from fragments at rates higher than fifty percent!

Unless you are resigned to mowing your lake as you do your lawn, it is a bad idea to fragment the living plants. If they can be cut smoothly, without much fragmentation causing vibration, and completely collected , that is great, but the problem will return from the roots.

Chemical Controls: In most, but not all cases, this is the best option. When done properly, it provides excellent results.
