Control Coontail

Manual/ Mechanical Control:

Physically pulling coontail weed can be an effective way to get rid of coontail in a pond or lake. Coontail will re-grow from any fragments remaining in the water.

Herbicide Control:

1. Dibrox (for ponds or lakes) – liquid that is diluted with water and sprayed over the plants, fast-acting. Dibrox will offer some control.
2. Spritflo (for ponds with no outflow) – liquid that is poured into the water and spreads throughout the entire body of water, offers extended control
3. Hydrothol (for lakes) – granules that are broadcast over the plants
