All lakes in Minnesota are capable of producing swimmers itch. Swimmers itch is caused by certain parasites that normally live on waterfowl and freshwater snails. You can reduce the odds of developing swimmers rash by staying away from areas of a lake where waterfowl and freshwater snails regularly congregate.

What lakes in Minnesota do not have swimmers itch?

While it's difficult to guarantee that any specific lake in Minnesota is completely free of swimmer's itch, some lakes are generally considered to have lower occurrences of the condition. Lakes like Lake Bemidji and certain areas of the Mississippi River are often reported to have fewer cases. However, swimmer's itch can vary year to year and even within different areas of the same lake, so it's always good to check local advisories or talk to residents for the most current information.
