If I end up using goats for it, I will let you know how it goes. The other option I can think of (that doesn’t involve chemicals) is solarizing it for three years… Best,Michelle Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone On Sunday, October 8, 2023, 11:43 AM, Kathleen Lomatoski <[email protected]> wrote: Hello Michelle, This message is from friends who live near Menotomy Park in Arlington. They used goats 5+ years ago to help eradicate PI at the park. I'm pretty sure the company we used was Goatscaping, I can't find a working web address for them but their Facebook page is: https://www.facebook.com/goatscaping/ I’m curious to know more if you find goats to help you.
