Chemical Treatments Are Convenient, Yet Cause possible Issues In The Future.

Aquatic weed maintenance requires a multifaceted strategy. Chemicals used to remove lake weeds can cause challenges if mechanical removal is not also included over time. L.E.W. employs spray compounds required by the State of Florida as the safest choice and need to used in balance with mechanical removal for your retention pond. Some spray sediments are heavy, resulting in some of the chemicals sinking to the bottom of a pond upon application and needs to be mechanically removed periodically. L.E.W. offers both types of maintenance to protect the eco-system of a pond, lake or waterway.

Lake Weeds Treated With Chemicals Need To Be Periodically Removed.

Most companies that utilize chemicals to kill Lake weeds in ponds do not clear the decaying plants because the dead vegetation will sink to the bottom of the pond overtime. This leaves you with two options: hiring a company to clean the dead vegetation out of your neighborhood pond, or let the harmful plants decompose naturally. If an exuberant amount of vegetation decomposes in your retention pond all at one time, the water will become over saturated with ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate buildup that can cause further water toxicity! Chemical buildup is also an issue. With this mass decay on top of the scarce food sources caused by chemicals, your neighborhood aquatic ecosystem is headed for extinction. Now you will be spending additional money to remedy the problem. The good news is that L.E.W can manage the best outcomes with mechanical removal and spray maintenance.
