The Idaho State Department of Agriculture (ISDA) has shared early summer updates about this season’s testing and treatment of invasive and noxious aquatic weeds on Hayden Lake:

ISDA’s weed surveys are complete, and they have found Eurasian Watermilfoil in Hayden Lake again this year.

Hayden Lake has been central in the Idaho State Department of Agriculture (ISD) sites in recent weeks. Since July is the month for invasive Eurasian Watermilfoil / Hybrid Watermilfoil (EWM) to reach its nuisance stage, ISDA has worked diligently to identify infestations and treat them responsibly.

The Idaho State Department of Agriculture (ISDA) is charged with managing invasive aquatic plants across Idaho. Current invaders in Hayden Lake include Curlyleaf Pondweed and Eurasian and Hybrid Milfoil. ISDA makes every effort to target these invasive weeds with the least impact on native plants or the natural ecosystem. We are grateful for their investment in Hayden Lake and their service to the Lake and its residents.
