Minnesota DNR still battling zebra mussels in area lakes

Rose Lake, MN (WDAY TV) – Clean, Drain and Dry, we’ve heard the schpiel all summer on Minnesota lake waters, but now, as the season is coming to a close it seems there are some that missed the message. Zebra Mussels have been found on a Lake on the Otter Tail River Chain. Continue Reading
For the record…I never said anything about expanding my business next year and I never said we were not going to build new cabins because we now have Zebra Mussels in our lake! I simply stated that business was good this year and we were hoping to build a couple new cabins some day so hopefully this won’t impact our business. It’s funny how reporters try to create stories out of nothing. I think that the real story here is that the DNR for the first time have the opportunity to maybe kill these things before an infestation occurs! That’s great news! And I’ve seen them over there working and I think they have been doing a great job! If however we do end up with an infestation then we will deal will it and live with it…just like the thousands of others who do. Everyone needs to just relax a bit, it’s not the end of the world. It’s this kind of media hype that scares people and because of that my business and many others will suffer.
