Contractor Database
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/province-specific lists of contractors.
If you would like your business to be listed, visit our contractor listing form to fill out required information including pesticide licenses/permits held and services that can be provided.
To search the table below enter a state or province in the search bar in the table, or management services provided by the contractor (Ex: cutting, mowing, herbicide, surveying, etc). You can also download the full contractor information table (GLPC_Contractor_Information8.8.22), which includes a description of Phragmites management history, if provided.
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 Phragmites Collaborative at [email protected] with questions or to request revisions. The contractor list is revised with any new contractors semi-annually.
