A Guntersville, Ala.-based aquatic weed management company is researching products and techniques to control the invasive plants and, in a separate development in the battle against water weeds, has recently been licensed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to use a promising new product, company officials said in a recent statement.
 
The new herbicide, SePRO Corp.'s ProcellaCOR, "provides a new mode of action when compared to other aquatic herbicides. It is a systemic herbicide that is used at very low rates, requires very short contact times and destroys milfoil and hydrilla colonies for the entire season," Aqua Services Inc. officials said in a statement.
 
ProcellaCOR "has a high degree of safety with regards to health, human safety and the environment," said Aqua Services vice president and managing partner Troy Goldsby.
 
"This is best demonstrated by the fact that there are no restrictions on drinking water, and you may swim, fish and irrigate turf immediately in areas where it has been used," he said. "... In some areas, it will alleviate many of the major problems and complaints that we hear from fishermen, boaters, and lake property owners."
