The non-native species looks like lily pads, and forms mats on the surface of water, impacting fish and duck habitats.

Do you boat, fish, or paddle on/in Minnesota lakes? Would you be willing to pay a daily access fee to help manage, eradicate & prevent aquatic invasive species in them?

Our researchers will share the results of this study in a webinar on April 10 at noon: https://t.co/7KRYXeyPdb
