Lake Mendota and Invasive Eurasian Water Milfoil

Eurasian water milfoil (Myriophyllum spicatum) is an invasive aquatic plant that poses significant threats to American lakes and waterways. I moved to Madison, WI a couple of years ago and I love the lakes! So last summer I was watching these interesting boats on Lake Mendota and wondering. What the heck are they doing? A little investigation and I found out they were the weed boats.
