Controlling wildlife can be very challenging, especially when it comes to nuisance species like mosquitoes, midges, and geese. And other non-native species, such as zebra and quagga mussels, invade waterbodies and cause major economic damage. Each of these free-roaming animals and insects pose their own unique management challenges. Fortunately, targeted technologies help us prevent these pesky creatures from negatively impacting your aquatic ecosystem and annoying your family, friends and neighbors during an afternoon on the water.
