Important Read: European Frog-bit affects lakes and those who care about them!
The Great Lakes Phragmites and European Frog-bit Collaboratives are reaching out to local lake partnerships and associations to share newly created educational resources that may be of interest to groups dedicated to protecting water resources in the Great Lakes region.
Attached are two flyers that provide information on the negative impacts of invasive Phragmites and European frog-bit as well as how to identify each species and report suspected sightings. Please share these resources with your networks or post them on your community boards to help manage the spread of invasive species!
If you want more resources like these or updates on either of the Collaboratives, you can join the Great Lakes Phragmites Collaborative's listerv and/or the European Frog-bit Collaborative's listerv.
