Weed Booms for Aquatic Weeds

Australian Made

Weed Booms

Trap unwanted aquatic weeds in waterways

Weed Booms are floating barriers that inhibit the spread of aquatic weeds in ponds, dams, rivers and canals.

Whether installed permanently or temporarily, Weed Booms stop the migration of unwanted aquatic flora, allowing for the isolation and treatment of these plants. The booms are fabricated with high quality materials and are intended for long-term use. While standard designs are available, custom options can be produced to match your unique conditions, e.g. water way size, flow rate, weed type and longevity.

"Since WQS installed the aerator, we've not had a single algae problem. In our smaller ponds that are too small for aerators we used Biostim pellets on their own and have noticed a huge reduction in algae.”

Andy Hart

“We had a nutrient-rich stormwater lake that was having continuous problems with algae. We were previously treating the nutrients with a liquid solution that would just end up getting flushed away with the outgoing water. Scott recommended we switch to Biostim pellets which were exactly what we needed.”

Giles Pickard

Environment Project Officer, City of Subiaco

“Visiting ducks and our pet geese were continuously fouling the dam. WQS recommended a number of systems to improve the water quality. We are very happy with our final choice, the windmill aeration system. This combined with the Biostim pellets and liquid are cleaning up the dirty dam. Everything WQS said would happen has happened!”

“We had an urgent problem—our old irrigation system had blockages from weeds. Our dam was also riddled with black sludge. Scott recommended both aeration and biologicals and within six weeks the dam became so clear I could see to the bottom of it for the first time in years! I was chuffed that we could fix the issue without the use of chemicals.”
