i gotta just add something to this... make sure the company is reliable and legitimate in specifically targeting the invasive plants and don't over-kill all the native weeds with it because that will ruin your lake WAY worse than the invasive plants. I've seen a few of my favorite lakes here in NJ destroyed from over killing weeds.

Good point! The chemical being used for treatment, Sonar One (Fluoridone), supposedly only targets the hydrilla. Anecdotally, I can tell that some of the emergent vegetation around the lake (lily pads, pickerel weed, etc.) became stressed, but did not die outright. They have since bounced back nicely since last year's treatment.
