Your Invasive Species of the week is Zebra Mussels! Now that the summer season is getting closer, and people are getting their boats ready to drop into the water. It's very important to know the area you're headed to and whether or not there is anything that can effect your boat and the environment around when it is both in and out of the water. Impacts of Zebra and Quagga Mussels -Zebra and quagga mussels filter water to the point where food sources such as plankton are removed, altering food webs. This also causes clearer water, allowing sunlight to penetrate deeper, increasing growth of aquatic vegetation. -Impact fish and wildlife by increasing toxic algal blooms. -Large colonies affect spawning areas, potentially impacting the survival of fish eggs. -Affects recreational activities by cutting swimmers feet as a result of their sharp shell. What You Can Do -Learn how to identify zebra and quagga mussels and how to prevent accidentally spreading these invasive species. Inspect your boat, trailer and equipment after each use. Remove all plants, animals and mud before moving to a new water body. -Drain water from motor, live well, bilge and transom wells while on land. -Rinse all recreational equipment with high pressure (>250 psi), hot water (50°C / 122°F) OR let it dry in the sun for at least 5 days. REMEMBER TO: CLEAN DRAIN DRY your boat and try to prevent the spread of invasive species. http://www.environment.gov.sk.ca/adx/aspx/adxGetMedia.aspx?DocID=685d9d6c-5e90-44bd-8649-1da7295ff776&MediaID=9478c93e-e4e4-46de-a3d1-2f3b9a8afbf9&Filename=Zebra+and+Quagga+Mussels+Fact+Sheet.pdf&l=English http://www.environment.gov.sk.ca/adx/aspx/adxGetMedia.aspx?DocID=cf9b73da-e0ab-476b-a0c4-b0683f55366b https://www.saskatchewan.ca/residents/environment-public-health-and-safety/wildlife-issues/invasive-species/clean-drain-and-dry-your-boat
