hi can you please tell me how i can completely remove water hyacint from my pond in Bangladesh. i get them growing every yearing during april and may. thanx much obliged

[pondplantgirl]

You can get rid of water hyacinth by:

1. draining the pond

2. adding koi

3. pulling it all out and throwing it in a mulch pile

4. chemicals can be added to the water but will kill off everything

5. insecticide soap will also kill water hyacinth, because the soap and oil will clog the large pores on the plant

Good Luck!

[pondplantgirl]

Thanks for offering to help the Feed the Hungry Garden. I actually need help with advertising and spreading the word. I'm also happy to do radio interviews. Networking connections are very valuable. Garden Blessings! GAiL
