"In 2002 I hired an area firm to suck out the weeds in front of the docks and hoist. I was told the weeds would not come back during the swimming season. I hired the outfit for two hours and paid them$335.00. Will, I'm sorry to report, the weeds were back within six weeks and were just as thick as the previous year. So, as I found out the hard way, sucking out weeds from my area of the lake just doesn't work."
