Since roughly 2000, invasive milfoils have been managed by hand-harvesting. Several organizations in the New
England states have undertaken successful lake-wide hand-harvesting management programs. Periodic maintenance is necessary; the species cannot be completely eradicated once established, but

it can be reduced to manageable levels. Well-trained divers with proper techniques have effectively controlled milfoil and maintained lakes, such as in the
Adirondack Park in Northern New York where chemicals, mechanical harvesters, and other management techniques are banned as disruptive. The

Mechanical management can include the use of a long-reach lake rake or aquatic weed razor blade tool. Using these tools is similar to lawn work. These tools are most effective before seeds set. Infestations can be prevented through the use of a Weed Roller or a LakeMaid. These are automated and
