Remove the Plant and Disturb New Root Growth
Removing the entire plant is important because weeds will not grow back because they are truly gone. The Beach Roller will also work to stop weeds from taking root along with stirring up sediment from the bottom of your beach which is beneficial to getting rid of muck.

It Really Works
We had been using a landscape rake to keep the weeds down but it was a losing battle. The first pass with the Beach Roller took me 3 days to do my 120' of bulkhead and all around my 2 docks. I had to clean the roller every other time I pushed it out, but after that it got to be a lot less work. After using once daily I had no weeds and a sandy bottom after ten days. I've been using it once every 2 or 3 days now and after 4 weeks I have a hard packed sandy bottom. The Beach Roller got rid of the weeds and the muck and without the use of chemicals. I do reccomend it for those in good shape or those wanting to get that way. I wish a hard cover was offered for it as it has very sharp teeth. Bottom line is it works and I feel it was money well spent.

I recommend the Beachroller
I learned about this product from my neighbor who had been to a boat show. I went online and found it at Weeders Digest. The Beachroller arrived quickly and was easy to assemble (except for one hole in the pvc that wasn't completely open - I carved it out with an exacto blade). It took about 20 minutes. A friend gave me a tip to put all the bolts in the handle going in the same direction, to avoid his mistake. The direction sheet could be better; it has very small print & the photos are not not clear against the yellow background. The Beachroller performed well, pulling in unbelievable amounts of thick dense weeds carpeting the bottom. I wore rubberized gardening gloves to remove the mat of weeds from the roller. I used this in combination with a lake rake to collect weeds that floated on the surface. After letting the weeds dry out some on the shore, I hauled them to the compost pile. To keep your lake in decent condition & be a good neighbor, don't put them back in a deeper part of the lake or on to your neighbor's. Now that the big mass of weeds is out it should be pretty easy to maintain the lake bottom. My wishes for this product include: 1. a way to fold the handle when not in use, and 2. a cover. (My neighbor made his out of a large accordion drain pipe that he cut in half & hinged.) P.S. I am an almost-70 year old woman and had no problem assembling and operating it.
