You decide to take your boat from Lake Samish to Lake Terrell. How can you help prevent the spread of Asian clams between these two lakes?

All of our education and outreach efforts are designed to help the public to understand the threat that invasive species pose to Whatcom County waters and steps they can take to help prevent their spread.

No aquatic invasive plants have been found to be growing in Lake Whatcom.

Inspectors will only need to do a visual inspection of the exterior of the watercraft.

Zebra and quagga mussels can attach themselves to hard surfaces but can be removed quite easily with a damp cloth.

Once an aquatic invasive species becomes established in a waterbody, it becomes increasingly difficult and costly to manage the population.
