Aquatic Weed Control: 3 Ways To Kill Bulrush
Published by Jamie Markoe on December 17, 2013 0 Comments
Bulrush (scripus) is an emersed, perennial, grass­like weed that grows in shallow water. Bulrush grows
up to 10 feet tall in colonies from rhizomes. A leafless stem can be triangular or round and comes to a
point at the tip. Loose clusters of brown flowers and seeds gather just below the tip. There is no known
biological control option.
Control methods:
1) Weed raking and weed cutting is an option for seed and root reduction. This method can be difficult
because new weeds can sprout from seeds and root fragments left behind.
2) Aquacide Pellets are a systemic aquatic herbicide that is best applied early spring as new growth
begins to appear. Repeat treatment 3­5 weeks after the first application may be needed to kill the entire
root system.
3) Aqua Neat Liquid and Shore­Klear Liquid are a second systemic option best applied mid­season
when all the weeds are above the water surface and in full bloom. Again, repeat treatment 3­5 weeks after the first application
may be needed to kill the entire root system.
