Dave Weber, CDOW Wildlife Biologist, has taken the
lead in the effort to control purple
loosestrife in the Denver area by helping organize control efforts
involving over 15 agencies and organizations. Dave's hard-working crew usually begins their
purple loosestrife control season in mid-June, finishing up around
the end of August. They spend their days scouting, monitoring, clipping
flowerheads, and carefully applying herbicides to purple loosestrife
infestations in the Denver-metro area.
