 Removing cattails from ponds---what do you use

I do remember as a kid rowing copper sulfate in a burlap bag around our pond until the crystal rocks disolved. Then one day my Dad brought home this gallon of liquid we poured into the pond. The pond went cloudy for a day or two then cleared up. Worked like a charm until one day we used too much and all the fish less than 3 inches long died. I spent a day going around the pond picking them up. A very stinky job.

EW, the copper sulfate was for submerged weeds. It didn't do anything for cattails. My Dad was always wrestling with the cattails. We just got in the mud and pulled them out by hand.

Oh yeah - and my Dad eventually put in a couple chinese non-reproducing carp that were supposed to eat weeds (not cattails). I wasn't living home at that time but he seemed to be pleased with them. I think they were made available through the conservation department.
