The best time to clean your boat to prevent the spread of aquatic nuisance species is immediately after leaving a body of water. This ensures that any hitchhiking organisms are removed before they can be transported to a new location. Additionally, cleaning should be done in a designated area away from other water bodies to minimize the risk of contamination. Regular maintenance and inspections during the boating season also help control the spread of these species.

You can prevent the spread of zebra mussels to other waters by checking your boat and trailer. Any water in the bilges or live wells should be drained before leaving the lake. Mud attached to anchors or ropes should be removed, as should any vegetation on boats or trailers.
