CONTROL OF WATER WEEDS IN THE UK
Customer satisfaction means everything to us and a friendly and reliable approach is assured at all times. We can offer a bespoke service that can tailor various methods to meet your requirements.
These include the following:
Mechanical Removal
Aquatic Solutions UK use an amphibious weed harvester called a Truxor, this remarkable machine is manufactured in Sweden and can cut your weed to a depth of 2m below water level, we then attach a clearing rake and lift and remove the cut material onto the bank, away from the waters edge.

Herbicide Treatment
Chemicals that treat submerged weeds have now been banned from use in the UK but there are several approved ones that can still be used on emerged plants after approval has been granted from the Environment Agency.
Aquatic Solutions UK will apply for a permit to do this on your behalf. Once a permit has been granted we will use NPTC qualified operatives to spray off vegetation from either the land or a boat.
Mechanical and Herbicidal Treatment
Sometimes a combination of methods is needed to control weeds.
If required we can treat the emerged vegetation with an approved herbicide and then cut & remove the dead vegetation with our amphibious Truxor.
