As temperatures rise, we're seeing an increase in pond management questions and concerns. Remember—the sooner a problem is identified, the easier (and often less expensive) it is to correct!
Noticing a new w**d starting to appear in your pond? Bring a sample to the Cooperative Extension Office, and we'll help identify it and develop a management plan.
Seeing algae growth, poor water clarity, or fish that aren't growing as expected? Bring in a water sample collected in a clean, rinsed beverage bottle along with a $10 testing fee. We'll analyze key water quality parameters and provide recommendations tailored to your pond management goals.
Whether you're managing a fishing pond, community pond, or simply want a healthier pond ecosystem, we're here to help!
