Most Frequently Asked Questions
Do
they really work?
Absolutely, and best of all with no cutting, raking,
hauling, or outrageous cost of other removal systems. They are also
friendly to the ecosystem of the lake.
Are
they easy to move?
Basic large mats weigh 90 lbs. Once it's at the shoreline
a normal person can unroll, then float the mat across the water to desired
spot and place it at the bottom.
What
maintenance do you do at the end of the year?
Nothing is required. If you do decide to take the mat
out of the lake for the off season, simply clean off the mat by rotating
the mat in the water. Then you roll up the mat and store outside or
inside.
Will
they float away?
No, but watch out for the lake harvesters, they may come
in contact with them.
Can
you swim or walk on them?
Certainly,the mat is 100% safe; some people even do water
aerobics on them.
Can
you leave them in the water over the winter?
Yes, just as long as the mat is out deep enough in the
water that the ice will not come in contact with it. The ice can damage
or move the mat.
Can
I downsize the mat if I need the mat to fit between docks?
Yes, just go between the centers of the attached weight
system and cut, make sure to burn the edges with a butane torch to reseal
the raw edges.
Will
they work for ponds as well?
Yes, 10% of sales is for ponds and tough pond edges that
you can't mow or control.
Is
there a top and bottom to the mat?
No, either side up is OK. When moving a mat follow these
steps - take hold of one end with two hands, walk the mat back over
itself, as you do this the water forces the mats to the top for easier
moving while cleaning the mat off at the same time.
After
a two week placement of the mat will weeds return that season?
Normally not, but it depends on when the mat was placed.
If the mat was placed at the early part of the season (before sprouting),
then you may have to move it back.
