Problem: “The swimming area in my lake is overrun by underwater plants.”
Solution: D.A.S.H. can get rid of the problem quickly and have you swimming comfortably in no time.
If you live on a lake or pond, you know how nuisance aquatic plants can grow out of control and get in the way of how you enjoy using the water. On the other hand, some native plants are needed to provide oxygen, food, and habitat that contribute to a healthy, balanced aquatic environment. Native plants are especially important if you want to support fish or other forms of wildlife. D.A.S.H., or Diver Assisted Suction Harvesting, allows us to remove the “bad” plants while leaving the right amount of “good” plants needed to keep your lake or pond healthy.
What is D.A.S.H.?
- D.A.S.H. stands for Diver Assisted Suction Harvesting and is an alternative to chemical use to kill unwanted plants.
- Divers identify unwanted non-native or invasive plants that need to be removed, pull them out by the roots and feed them into a suction tube that transports the plants to a boat to be hauled away.
- The results are immediate, long-lasting, and chemical-free.
Problem: “Weeds around my dock are getting stuck in the propeller of my boat!”
