Eco-Harvester

Aquatic Weed Harvester

​

Whether it's pulling, cutting, or skimming, lake weeds don't have a chance with the Eco-Harvester! Its shallow water abilities can reach weeds that other weed harvesters can't get to. The specially designed intake system is highly effective at weed pulling and extraction. Floating weed mats don't stand a chance either - the Eco- Harvester easily skims surface debris and pulls it up into the bunk, which holds a generous 4 cubic yards of weeds. When it's full, just head for the shore where our patented rotational conveyor technology will self-unload the weeds into a truck, trailer or onto shore.

 The Eco Harvester pulls weeds up from the roots, harvesting them to be recycled and reused as mulch or animal feed.  Its an environmentally friendly way to harvest aquatic plant and the only harvester that works in this manner.  ALL other aquatic weed harvesters cut the weeds! It is 95% effective at uprooting milfoil, hydrilla, celery grass, water chestnut, and most other aquatic plants prevalent in ponds, lakes, rivers, channels, canals, and beachfront property.
