    Year 1 Preliminary Results

    • Both herbicides, Endothall and Triclopyr are responding as expected*
    • Hydroacoustic scans are showing knock-back in most sites to meet the 75% threshold
    • UV-C treatments in early spring appear to have made a significant difference in efficacy

    *Triclopyr only affects Eurasian Watermilfoil so it is expected that other species of aquatic weeds in these treatment areas would still be in abundance.
