    Cattails have invaded my pond. Since I have not added any plants for a few years, it has to have happened by seed. There is a swamp very close to my property and the seed has to have
    blown in from there.

    I really need to eradicate it Now. Has anyone else ever had to deal with this? Any help
    would be greatly appreciated.

    My pond has alot of waterlilies in it, and alot of big koi.

    Tomorrow I will be doing a water change and dropping the water level. Hopefully the cattails
    can be pulled out. Some of them are growing in with the rushes. :(
