ALERT!

Zebra mussels and Quagga mussels are two species that, when introduced to a new ecosystem, reproduce at such a rapid rate that they then over take the ecosystem and kill everything in it as they do not have any natural predators in Saskatchewan, Canada, or North America.

They have been confirmed present in Lake Winnipeg as well as the Great Lakes. Additionally they have been found in every state in the USA.

If there is a boat that has been in a lake in these contaminated areas, they must be quarantined and disinfected before they are allowed in Saskatchewan lakes. If you spot a boat with a license plate from these areas, call the number on the sign and do not allow the boat in the water.

Eventually we will have pamphlets with more information available at the store as well as on the MLAC website.
