I just wonder the effectiveness of the treatment - it would seem to make sense that since their is milfoil all over the lake that it would eventually make its way back into that section, floating in, being brought in by other boats, etc...

I have lived on small lakes that were treated successfully, but these are self contained areas...Since Smith Cove is part of the big lake and their is no controllign what comes into the cove...it seems that its money and chemicals wasted.

I could be wrong - and hope it does work - milfoil is just nasty.

Good Luck!
