Add a little dish soap to the mixture before spraying. This will help is stick.

All your looking for is something to "break" the surface tension of the water to allow it to "stick" to whatever you are spraying.

Yes I can, I doubt it would all dry out and leave me enough time to PAY to have water pumped back in. The water would easily cost me 8K or so. I can drain it after duck season, then what? Hope it dry's out? Try to burn it?

The last part is what I was thinking about. If we have a dry spring/summer this may be a way to get rid of it and not control it.

If you have water right now, forget about eradication this year. I'm in the same boat your in. Maybe try the tarp trick for a landing hole. After 2,4d the hyacinth took a squat but the salvania more than compensated for it. Woodies and squeelers seemed to make the mix with duck weed turn to pure salvenia. I can't drain or keep water low so reward will bankrupt me. I hope to hell the ldwf can find a way to keep this stuff in check with wevels below I10.

I went down to the lease on Sunday and sprayed all day here are some pictures when I got there. It looks like I have common Salv not Giant.

Here is a picture from the canal (which is thick) leading to the pond area. The Salv is much more green in the canal for some reason. I did have the ponds sprayed for cat tail earlier in the year by a helicopter service, I am not sure why there is a difference in color.

That is common salvinia for sure. That is depressing looking at that but its good you are trying to get ahead of it which in many situations is all you can do. You may be lucky though if you can drain it after the season

How do you think it got in there? Is your area leveed off?


and...did you wash your boat and trailer?
