WINNIPEG — The province has launched its invasive species early detection response protocol after zebra mussel veligers, or larvae, have been found in Lake Winnipegosis and Waterhen Lake.
A local fisher reported zebra mussels attached to their boat in Lake Winnipegosis, the province said in a news release Monday.
Analysis of veliger samples taken before the fisher’s report found the larvae in both lakes, which will be monitored in the next few weeks to determine the severity of the invasions.
Anyone using either lake will be required to decontaminate their watercraft and any water-related equipment before entering another body of water.
