Aquatic Weed Removal
Mechanical cutting, collection, and physical removal of unwanted aquatic vegetation from lakes and ponds throughout Central Florida.
The Problem with Aquatic Weeds
When Weeds Take Over Your Waterway
Aquatic weeds like water hyacinth, hydrilla, torpedo grass, and cattails can spread rapidly — choking out native plants, depleting oxygen levels, and making your lake or pond nearly unusable. Left unchecked, they can cover an entire water body within a single growing season.
At Lake and Pond Cleaning, we use specialized Mobitrac Aquatic Harvesters to mechanically cut and physically remove aquatic vegetation from your waterway. Unlike chemical treatments, our approach removes the plant material entirely — reducing the nutrient load that fuels future regrowth.
We serve homeowners, HOAs, municipalities, and commercial property owners throughout Marion, Lake, and Sumter Counties.

Common Aquatic Weeds We Remove
We Tackle the Toughest Aquatic Vegetation
Water Hyacinth
One of the world's most invasive aquatic plants — fast-spreading mats that block sunlight and deplete oxygen.
Hydrilla
A submersed weed that grows rapidly from the bottom, forming dense canopies that crowd out native species.
Torpedo Grass
An aggressive emergent grass that colonizes shorelines and shallow water, spreading through rhizomes.
Cattails
Dense stands of cattails can dominate shorelines, limiting access and reducing habitat diversity.
Water Lettuce
Free-floating rosettes that form thick mats, blocking light and reducing oxygen for fish and wildlife.
Spatterdock / Lily Pads
Rooted floating-leaf plants that can spread across large areas of shallow water, limiting recreational use.
Our Process
How We Remove Aquatic Weeds
Site Assessment
We evaluate your waterway — identifying weed species, coverage area, water depth, and access points — to plan the most effective approach.
Mechanical Harvesting
Our Mobitrac Aquatic Harvesters cut and collect vegetation at or below the waterline, removing the plant material from the water.
Debris Removal
Collected vegetation is transported out of the water and properly disposed of — reducing the nutrient load that drives regrowth.
Follow-Up Plan
We discuss ongoing maintenance options to keep your waterway clear and prevent vegetation from returning to problem levels.
