• Zebra mussels have already caused damage to industrial and municipal water delivery systems.
  
• Zebra mussels are a potential threat to our hydropower and irrigation systems.
  
• Zebra mussels threaten our native mussels, they are wiping out populations in the Great Lakes.
  
• Zebra mussels are a potential threat to our sport fisheries.
  
• On a more personal level, zebra mussels can cause your boat engine to seize up by blocking the cooling water intake.

Zebra mussels are a pest organism because they not only attach to one another, but also to man-made objects, including water intakes and other plumbing of water, power, and other companies that use fresh water. This picture illustrates how mussels have caused a complete blockage of a pipe.

Zebra mussels also attach to other organisms, such as these native (North American) mussels from Lake Erie. Heavy loads of zebra mussels have killed essentially all native Unionid mussels in western Lake Erie, an early site of the zebra mussel invasion.

Tri-Aqua can create a custom built system to suit your needs.
To ensure maximum benefits we have designed a system to: Restrict zebra mussels or their veligers from entering your water supply system, while still providing adequate intake for your water consumption.
Can be easily connected to your existing water intake line.
