I am writing to ask that folks who use Illinois lakes Dear Ecologgers, I am writing to ask that folks who use Illinois lakes, ponds, and streams for research or recreation please keep a lookout for the aquatic superweed Hydrilla verticillata this summer and fall.
More information about Hydrilla and our early detection/rapid response program can be found at our website: www.niipp.net/hydrilla. If you think you've found Hydrilla please contact us. Thank you!
