Don’t Be a Carrier: Clean, Drain, Dry
The best way to prevent the spread of invasive species is by always following these three simple steps:
CLEAN off any vegetation, mud or foreign objects on your boat, trailer and gear before you leave the lake.
DRAIN all water from your boat and gear. Small invasive species like zebra mussel larvae are invisible to the naked eye and can hide in the water in your motor, bilge, live wells and bait buckets.
DRY your boat and trailer for a week or more before entering another water body.
Thank you for doing your part to stop the spread of these destructive invaders.
