The Marsh-Mog is a multi purpose aquatic ecosystem maintenance machine designed by Clean Lakes, Inc. located in Martinez, Calif.. The Marshmog was first introduced in 2007.
The MarshMog is best equipped for aquatic plant control in wetland areas. Marshes often times can not be accessed by floating aquatic machinery such as the Aquamog, Cookie Cutter or Aquatic Weed Harvesters. As well land equipment such as backhoes, excavators and draglines can not access most wetlands & marshes without building access roads which can damage these sensitive aquatic eco-system.
However, the marshmog has a ground pressure of 0.61 pounds per square inch. This is an amazingly low number and is even less than most individuals just with their footprint. This equates to the most cost effective method of completing maintenance tasks in our sensitive aquatic ecosystems. The Marshmog can operate in wet soil types where humans can not walk, and in water depths up to 2′two feet}.
The Marsh mog can be used for many aquatic vegetation clearing projects. It can be operated with numerous tools that include mowers and grinders, as well as plows and discing tools.
Precision aquatic herbicide treatments can be performed by the Marshmog as well. In areas that were only previously accessible for this type of work the Marshmog excels at a much lower cost per acre. The Marshmog is fitted with a GPS mapping system that collects the information required to complete precision treatments as well as mapping of the site for information purposes.
The Marshmog is the latest cutting edge aquatic maintenance tool invented and designed by the same group who in the early 1980s thought of and built the Aquamog.
