hi new to the site.
i am a manager at a park we have a fishing lake that is filled with lilly pads was just wondering if
taking one of the lilly pad razer removersand cut the pads off would that work to remove them for good if we keep up on them and cut them as they grow every 2weeks or so? would that kill the lilly roots for good becuse they would have no pads on top of the water??
do you have a better idea? if so pleas share any help will be appreciated greatly !
price range around 200
decent sized lake

Welcome to PBF Anthony!
If herbicide is an option for you, the Illinois DNR recommends Navigate granular for lily pads. IMO using a razor will be a never ending job and will never kill the lily pads.
Hopefully, one of the veggie pros will offer up some advice.
Again, welcome!

Good question RAH. If it is spadderdock then Navigate will only give partial control. According to the Illinois DNR, a pond safe glyphosate like Aqua Neat or Rodeo would be better control of spadderdock and less expensive.
Anthony, are you sure with your ID as lily?
