Whoa. Pull back the machine guns. That was not the intent of my post. I too empathize with the weed choked lakes and understand the need for getting a hold on invasive weed situations. I just have a hard time with weed killing sprays as I suffer with disabling effects of past exposure. Also, as stated by someone else on here the results of spraying on Lake Toho as an example. So even with spraying not all is good. There seems to be no great cure all so we are left with whatever works. I did not mean to ruffle any feathers with my post, however, I am a living example of what can happen to people that are exposed to toxins. And when you joke of newbies nuking the river I cringe because you know they are over spraying and to me that is dangerous. This is all I will post about this and again from the bottom of my heart I only wish each of you the best. God Bless You All.
