Hello all...we are planning killing our pond on the 25th of august and i have some rotenone questions as i have never done this before...our pond is approx 2.8 acres with ten feet deep in approx an acre of it and the rest ranging from 3 to 5 deep...

Does anyone know the ratio for rotenone? how much i will need?

and fish wise..are they safe to eat since it removes the oxygen from the water and doesnt actually poison the fish....

Rookie Questions...thanks for yall help...

I'm looking forward to answers on this. Thats a pretty big pond with probably a lot of fish in it.

Two questions though, why are you killing your pond and when is the fish fry (if its safe)?

Have you found a source for Rotenone yet? Here's a thread from earlier in the year about using it:
