ProCellaCOR

On August 15th, we held an Information Session with PhD experts from across North America, there to answers to questions submitted by members about the use of ProccellaCor for the management of Eurasian Water Milfoil.

ProCellaCOR FX is a highly effective, liquid drip treatment that targets Eurasian Milfoil at the root. It has been certified and approved for use in Canada (by Health Canada), the EU and the U.S.A. Before bringing this solution forward, since Fall of 2022, the MPOA Board (under the umbrella of the Blue Lakes Committee) has carried out extensive research and consultations with government agencies, conservation authorities and other Lake Associations into options to treat Eurasian Milfoil. 

This treatment is not a guaranteed eradication of the infestation;  however, it does allow us to manage it in an attempt to keep it under control, which is our best hope. It has been independently and widely studied and has been used in Canada in such places as the Bay of Quinte twice and Farlain Lake (near Collingwood). While Farlain Lake has been trying to eradicate Eurasian Milfoil for 10+ years without success, in September 2023 they used ProCellaCOR FX with excellent results.  

Here's a great video about how well ProCellaCOR worked on Farlain Lake. https://vimeo.com/910198309

ProCellaCOR FX will cost approx. $125k for the application and 3 year management of the 23 known patches.
