Summary

Lakes across New Hampshire are under siege from invasive aquatic plants like variable milfoil, which choke ecosystems, ruin recreation, and hurt local economies. Volunteers at places like Suncook Lake are fighting a losing battle—just holding back, not eradicating. Removal and herbicides are expensive, often ineffective, and can backfire. But hope exists: Lake Sunapee’s early detection and rapid response team successfully wiped out curly-leaf pondweed, proving that with speed, resources, and vigilance, victory is possible—before it’s too late.
