Louisiana Representative Dodie Horton recently posted to her Facebook page, the response she got when she inquired of the LDWF plans to battle this tremendous issue.
And just like that, all our hopes and prayers that the ice storm that rolled through back in February would knock Giant Salvinia into another universe are gone
As we dig out from under the collapsed roofs and carports and finally restore running water to NWLA, many of us are looking for a silver lining. Did the hard freeze help curb any of our local pests?
I'm not saying that Salvinia comes straight out of Hell, but I am saying that if the Devil eats salad, it's probably made from this lake killing, invasive, aquatic species.
Riverwalk's "The Oxbow" Red River inlet has been completely overrun with the Salvinia to the point that it's hard to tell where the land ends and the water begins.
