How We Control Emergent Overgrowth

Emergent growth can strangle out a pond or lake, affect the aesthetic value, and sometimes even become a fire hazard if left unattended. For long-term results, unwanted emergent weeds must be treated with a systemic herbicide before removal. We offer both emergent treatment and removal services.

We use lightweight, specialized equipment, to avoid damaging the existing landscape, taking special care to remove these emergent weeds and give you back your pond. Offsite removal of debris may also be available. Most cattail and phragmites removal services are completed within one day.

Pond Raking

Any removal of dead debris from a pond is beneficial. Pulling dead weeds, algae, and decaying leaves from Southeast Michigan area pond, will aid in slowing down muck build-up while discouraging mosquitos, rodents, and other predators. Debris removal will also help with pond odors and oxygen circulation, giving your pond a more aesthetic appeal and better accessibility for pond activities.
