Once I graduate I'll hopefully be able to figure it out . There are little insects in the beetle family called "Weevils" that have had varied success in combating Mill-foil. That being said, It's very rare for a foreign species to take out an invasive species without further complication and elevation to the problem. Any move has to be well calculated. Fortunately (for us) Winni is not the only lake that is dealing with this problem.. research is being accumulated nationwide.

Again, it could be worse. We're worried about vegetation, It could be a Snakehead fish. In two years a single female can produce 150,000 eggs. That would be a disaster and really the end of Winni as we knew it..
