Phragmites management, especially at large scales, is often best handled by professionals who have training, proper protective equipment, and knowledge of the necessary permits and licenses. To assist in the process of finding a contractor, we have begun state-specific lists of contractors.
The following list was compiled by the Great Lakes Phragmites Collaborative. The Great Lakes Phragmites Collaborative and the Great Lakes Commission make no endorsements of any contractor and do not make any statement regarding the quality of the work performed by these contractors. Contact the Great Lakes Commission at phragmites@glc.org for any revisions and/or additions to the list or if you would like to list your services.
