Weed Roller In The News: KSTP TV Reports on Minnesota DNR Permit Application

DNR Raises Prices to Remove Aquatic Vegetation

The cost to clear vegetation along the shoreline at your cabin is about to go up. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is more than doubling the cost for a permit to allow residents to remove aquatic vegetation from their property.

The permits for both Weed Rollers and herbicides will be raised from $30 to approximately $90 next summer.

Bruce Wahlstrom of Lake Weeders Digest (http://www.WeedersDigest.com)says many lake homeowners are willing to pay thousands of dollars for his company's product, called the Weed Roller, to clean their shoreline.

But Wahlstrom predicts that when the DNR imposes the higher fees, more homeowners may start looking for ways to get around the new costs.

"When people see the restrictions getting stronger and more expensive, we'll see more people taking things into their own hands...that's not good for the state, that's not good for our lakes," Wahlstrom explained.

He says he fears more people will turn to chemicals to clear out vegetation that could potentially harm wildlife and the lake.

The legislature is forcing the DNR to nearly triple its fees due to the Aquatic Plant Management program isn't able to pay for itself.

The DNR will accept public comments about the fees until Aug. 14. However, officials say while they'll listen, their hands are tied because of their orders from the legislature.

Your Lake and Pond Maintenance Strategy: Get ready for NEXT YEAR!

http://www.LakeWeeds.MN
Your Lake and Pond Fall Strategy:

As summer begins to wind down and fall gears up, frustrated lake and pond owners that have spent the summer overwhelmed by weeds, muck and algae decide that now is the time to give up on managing their waterfront and hope that next year will be a much better year.
However, if proactive steps are not taken now, there is a good chance that next summer will be worse!

Now is THE most important time for waterfront maintenance!

  • If you allow the vegetation to die off naturally (or chemically), it will settle to the bottom, create another layer of muck and provide a nutrient rich fuel for algae blooms and next years plant growth. Be proactive and take control by removing the plants mechanically now. http://www.LakeWeeds.MN
  • Many invasive weeds such as eurasian water-milfoil are self-fragmenting. If they are allowed a natural die-off, they will fragment on their own and are likely to replant in other areas of your waterfront.
  • Future growth of cattails can be dramatically reduced by cutting below the waterline in the late summer. This is not an easy project unless you have the right tools. Our Aquatic Vegetation Groomer, Lake Mower and WeedShear (in that order) are capable of getting it done.
  • Lily pads are working very hard at this time of the year to develop a stronger root system to expand their reach further next spring. Removing the pad at this time will weaken the entire root system. All of our cutting tools work well on lily pads.
  • The bottom muck and organic sediment should also be reduced by raking, WeedRolling or using our Muck Digester pellets. This effort will reduce future algae and weed growth for years to come.

So, if you want to increase your enjoyment next summer, be proactive and make the commitment right now for the future.

If you do not have the tools available to accomplish these important tasks, here is another great reason to consider making the investment into your shoreline right now: We are certain that nearly all of our products will increase in cost this next spring. Some costs have increased substantially and have already been passed on to us and we will need to do so in the spring.

Oh, one last reason to apply your greatest effort right now:summer is not over - why not enjoy your waterfront before fall arrives!
