Our new lake surface-excavator, affectionately named “the Weedoo” propels itself through clean battery power while it employs an electric conveyor belt and an automatic bagging system to remove aquatic weeds and scum from your lakes and ponds… and better yet, our biodegradable debris bagging material ensures that the future environmental footprint of this service will be minimized. This service will enhance your lake ecosystems in many ways. First and foremost, lake aesthetics will be instantly improved as scum and debris is removed and will not be able to settle to the bottom of your lake where they would add unwanted nutrients to your lake that could lead to the unnatural aging of your lakes called eutrophication. Better yet, our Weedoo will help limit your lake’s exposure to chemicals and will use no dirty energy sources like gasoline or oil in the weeds, scum and debris removal process.

Florida Lakes and Ponds have a intricate balance of native plants, fish, and microorganisms. As soon as aquatic weeds. take hold in your lake or pond, they often multiply rapidly and cause a chain reaction of problems. The quickest and most effective treatment of aquatic weeds is to remove them mechanically.
