Pond Boss Forums AQUATIC VEGETATION Controlling unwanted plants Ordered some Navigate granular yesterday.

Looking forward to seeing how effectively it controls the water lilies that are taking over the shallow areas of my pond.

Anyone here had any experience with using this product?

ive used it on parrots feather and it done a great job.

I'm not a big 2, 4-D user any longer. I think it is on the verge of being banned. I would have used something specifically for lilies like Rodeo, AquaPro with Glyphosate. But that's me.

Eric, it is our prefferred method on smaller abundance of lillies. Follow label directions and use higher amount for lillies, great time of year for applicaiton. Repeat with second application after a month or when you see greenup. It will take a few applications to eradicate but much better for root kill vs. liquid glyphosate

We treated a test area in the corner of the pond near our fishing dock. We put the navigate out a week ago today. I'm definitely noticing some sick looking lilies. They have not dropped from the water column just yet. After we see how effective our test area treatment was I'm going to start going around the pond and treating the areas that are really infested.

I use it on dollar shield and like it as I can treat specific areas and leave other areas alone for smaller fish to hide in. Works well for specific types of weeds like lilies.
