Diaquat will get it. And not the fish.

NASCAR could help, but he got the ban hammer for ruining the outdoor board with his silly entertainment. He's probably drowned himself in his pond by now. (If it wasn't for his special anti drowning safety feature, of course.)

It's hydrocotyl. Not sure about what to kill it with. I've pulled it out of ponds with a tractor-mounted rake before.

I dont't think Gramoxone is labled for pond use. i would go with a 2,4-d type chemical.

Paraquat not for use in aquatics. Diaquat is, almost exact same chemical and works just as good.

I was thinking hydrilla,
not very familiar with aquatics. Are those similar.
Posted on 3/3/13 at 7:12 pm to Nodust
If you fish for bass and are not certain what hydrilla is you should do a little research.

you are correct. i went thru all this before with a few ponds. be careful when you apply any herbacide in a pond because if you kill to much at once and the weather becomes hot and still your dissolved O2 concentration will drop too low to support fish.
