esshup, I have no intention of breaking any rules. I'm simply stating that chemicals are hard to come by up here.
I really don't want to use them anyway, I was just hoping that there may be a way to take care of it naturally while I am doing the renovation. In my pond the Millfoil grows to about 5 feet so if when I'm done most of the pond is over 5 feet and I have a ring of Millfoil around the edges, that's not too bad.
I plan on building a large "T" dock with a diving board and latter, so we won't have to walk through it to get in the pond. And it will look really cool!!
