Understanding Native vs Invasive Species

When it comes to removal of weeds, there are two types, native and invasive. Invasive species have very few regulations as the goal is to have them eliminated entirely. For Native species, there are some regulations to know before getting started. You can learn more about Native and Invasive aquatic plants here:

Restoring Balance to the Environment

Our goal is to make your water area look great but also improve aquatic life. Invasive weeds can starve the area of oxygen and cause fish to die or leave the area entirely. By carefully removing unwanted weeds and following the specific rule set out by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry, our aquatic weed control is an environmentally friendly way to remove lake weeds and help rebalance the ecosystem.

Invasive weeds, not native to Ontario, disrupt the natural ecosystem, deteriorating water quality.

Their unchecked growth leads to dense patches, depleting oxygen and driving fish away or causing fatalities.

Our intervention aims to restore balance, fostering diverse aquatic life and enabling recreational activities.

We target invasive species overgrowth to revitalize areas, creating visually appealing and functional spaces.

Our efforts seek to welcome back thriving fish populations to their natural habitats.

By addressing weed proliferation, we aim to ensure waterbodies support diverse ecosystems and recreational use.

FAQ

  • How long until we can tackle your weeds?

    The timeline for our service availability relies on the volume of ongoing projects when you reach out to us. Our goal is to promptly accomplish your lake weed or pond weed removal, ensuring you swiftly relish your property's full potential. As per Ontario regulations, within the stipulated timeframe permissible for weed removal activities, we endeavour to commence work at your site within approximately 2 weeks, subject to our existing workload.

  • How long does it take?

    The duration for completion can fluctuate based on the expanse of the area undergoing clearance and the specific types of weeds targeted for removal. In general, for most projects, we can efficiently conclude a 6000 sqft area (100x60) in 6-8 hours. However, larger areas or particularly challenging weed varieties might necessitate additional time to ensure thorough and meticulous removal, extending the completion timeframe accordingly.

  • How long does it last?

    The duration and effectiveness for lakeweed and pond weed removal varies based on multiple factors, including the type of weed, environmental conditions, and the extent of infestation.


    Generally, our weed removal process can yield results ranging around 2 years. Some removal techniques, such as cutting or harvesting, may remove the visible parts of the weed but leave the roots intact, allowing regrowth over time.


    However, even with comprehensive removal efforts, it's crucial to remain vigilant as seeds, remnants, or new spores can reintroduce weeds. Regular maintenance, monitoring, and implementing strategies to prevent regrowth are essential for prolonged weed control and maintaining a clear water environment.

  • How is equipment cleaned to prevent further spread of weeds when moving from different ponds and lakes?

    Mobitrac lake weed removal equipment is cleaned meticulously to prevent the potential spread of weeds when transitioning between various ponds and lakes. This cleaning process involves several key steps:


    1. Thorough Rinsing: The equipment is rinsed extensively after each use in a water body. High-pressure washing or rinsing helps remove any attached plant matter, debris, or seeds that might cling to the equipment.


    2. Disinfection: Certain parts of the equipment that come into direct contact with water are often disinfected using environmentally safe solutions or disinfectants. This step ensures any potential remaining seeds or organisms are neutralized.


    3. Drying: All components of the Mobitrac equipment are properly dried. This helps eliminate any remaining moisture that might harbor weed fragments or seeds, reducing the likelihood of transporting invasive species.


    4. Inspections and Maintenance: Regular inspections and maintenance are conducted to ensure that the equipment is in optimal condition. Any signs of potential contamination or weed remnants are addressed promptly.


    5. Compliance with Regulations: The cleaning procedures often comply with local, regional, or national regulations to prevent the spread of invasive species. These guidelines are essential in mitigating the risk of inadvertently transferring weeds between different water bodies.


    By adhering to these rigorous cleaning protocols, Mobitrac ensures that its equipment is thoroughly sanitized and free from potential contaminants, contributing to the prevention of further weed spread across different ponds and lakes.
