Algae & Invasive
Management

Florida's aquatic ecosystems face constant pressure from exotic species and harmful algal blooms. Our company has this down to a science for over 30 years, providing proven strategies to stay ahead of these challenges.

Comprehensive Management
of Aquatic Challenges

Without proper management, lakes and wetlands quickly fall out of balance, leading to ecological decline and public health risks. Our expertise ensures practical, proven strategies tailored to Florida's unique conditions.

Algae Management Solutions

Comprehensive strategies to prevent and control all types of algae that threaten Florida's aquatic ecosystems. From microscopic blooms to toxic cyanobacteria, we provide proven solutions.

  • Plankton Algae Control: Monitoring protocols and nutrient management to prevent oxygen crashes and fish kills
  • Filamentous Algae Treatment: Targeted strategies to control unsightly mats that smother native habitats
  • Blue-Green Algae Response: Toxic bloom identification and public health protection protocols
  • Prevention Strategies: Long-term nutrient management and ecosystem balance restoration

Invasive & Exotic Plant Control

Strategic consulting on managing submersed, floating, and emergent invasive plants that dominate Florida waters. Our approach ensures resources are directed effectively toward the highest-impact solutions.

  • Submersed Weed Control: Targeted management of underwater invasive vegetation
  • Floating Plant Management: Control strategies for surface-dominating species
  • Emergent Species Control: Management of invasive plants in shallow areas and margins
  • Plant ID & Strategy: Distinguishing invasive species from beneficial natives for targeted action

Best Management Practices (BMPs)

For over 30 years, we have built our approach around implementing Best Management Practices in every aspect of algae and invasive species management. Science-based solutions that work.

  • Herbicide Applications: Safe, effective, minimal-use applications that control targets without harming natives
  • Mechanical Harvesting: Physical removal solutions for large-scale vegetation while reducing chemical inputs
  • Integrated Approaches: Blending biological, mechanical, and chemical methods for sustainable outcomes
  • Environmental Safety: All methods uphold strict environmental stewardship standards

Prevention & Early Detection Programs

The most effective invasive species management starts with prevention and early detection programs. Proactive monitoring and intervention prevent small problems from becoming major infestations.

  • Early Detection Monitoring: Regular surveys to identify new invasive species before they establish
  • Rapid Response Protocols: Immediate action plans when new invasive species are detected
  • Risk Assessment Programs: Evaluating vulnerability and invasion pathways for your water body
  • Prevention Best Practices: Boat cleaning, native landscaping, and ecosystem maintenance protocols

Stakeholder Education & Best Practices

Comprehensive education programs that empower property owners, lake associations, and community members with knowledge and tools to prevent invasive species introductions and spread.

  • Educational Workshops: Training sessions on invasive species identification and prevention
  • Community Engagement: Building collaborative relationships with all water body users
  • Resource Materials: Identification guides, signage, and educational materials
  • Best Management Protocols: Science-based practices for property management and maintenance

Integrated Ecosystem Management

Holistic approach that combines invasive species management with native ecosystem restoration and enhancement. Creating resilient ecosystems that naturally resist invasive species establishment.

  • Native Species Restoration: Establishing competitive native plant communities that resist invasion
  • Habitat Enhancement: Improving ecosystem conditions to favor native species over invasives
  • Water Quality Optimization: Managing nutrients and conditions to reduce invasion susceptibility
  • Long-term Sustainability: Creating self-sustaining systems that maintain ecological balance
