Dollar Bonnet

Postby hawkeye » Wed Mar 10, 2010 11:13 pm

Got a friend that has a farm pond covered in this stuff. Wanting to know control measures to take, or said he would rather somebody come do it for him that knows what they are doing. Anybody got any names numbers or info on this would be greatly appreciated.

Best and cheapest chemical would be an aquatic lableled 2,4-D such as Platoon or Hardball. Use a good surfactant, and if applying by boat or in windy conditions use a silicone based surfactant to keep the chemical on the waters surface in contact with the plant. Otherwise waves will just wash the herbicide off the foliage.

Any questions drop me a pm, or check out the pm Chevy sent you.

get rid of it quickly or the ringnecks will take over your pond; they love the seeds inside the plant
