Notice to all Members
Two of our members brought a sample of
an aquatic weed they suspected was HYDRILLA. The good
news is that it was not.
The message of the day is that we would
rather have samples of suspect weeds that could be
Hydrilla or other invasive plants, than to miss one
little fragment of a weed that could again threaten our
lake.
Please do not be afraid to call or bring
a plant sample to any of the Directors of FOLM. Be
constantly vigilant.
We want to advise you that other lakes
are experiencing "someone" planting Hydrilla by bringing
buckets-full on pallets and lowering the pallets into
the lake in secluded areas. This is illegal….to
transport or possess Hydrilla or other noxious aquatic
weeds is a punishable offense. FOLM will not be afraid
to prosecute.
Boaters:
If you're bringing your
boat in from another lake, please check for Hydrilla
cuttings on your prop, trailer, etc. This is one
way that Hydrilla is spread from one lake to
another.
