Natural Aquatic Lake Weed Control
As you know, herbicides kill lake weeds. They also ruin water
quality as the dead weeds rot and release the fertilizer they
have taken up. As they rot, they also consume oxygen, causing a
massive release of fertilizer from the bottom organic sediment.
Fish kills often occur as a result of the oxygen depletion.
Herbicides to kill lake weeds do nothing to remove muck
fertilizer, nothing to improve water quality, reduce odors, or
improve fish growth or health. The USGS cites herbicides as a “.
. . potential concern for human health if they affect a drinking
water source or occur where there is recreational use. They are
also a potential concern for aquatic life. (Robert Gilliam et
al, 1999) There are hundreds of publications on the dangers of
using herbicides to kill lake weeds.
With herbicides to kill lake weeds, the fertilizer remains in
the water. The lake weeds quickly return unless algae shades the
water before the lake weeds are established. Then you have a
lake full of algae.

Natural aquatic lake weed control with lake aerators results
from fertilizer reductions. All submerged aquatic plants must
absorb their major food, carbon dioxide from the water column;
not through the roots. The
CLEAN-FLO Lake Aerator exhausts
carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, reducing carbon dioxide to
such low levels that the plants starve. Lake aerator natural
aquatic lake weed controls permanently kill lake weeds.
To accelerate the lake aerator removal of phosphates, we add
combinations of our Lake Cleanser Special or Lake Care,
beneficial bacteria and enzymes. Natural lake weed control is
based on water quality. We usually remove over 97% of the
fertilizer in the water column. The
lake aerator and products
reduce fertilizer needed for lake weed growth.
