Hyacinth infestation at Hartbeespoort Dam

HARTBEESPOORT, North West - The National Research Foundation, Rhodes University, and the Water and Sanitation Department will lead the latest attempt to address invasive vegetation at the Hartbeespoort Dam.

Weevils will once again be released to curtail the growth of hyacinth over the body of water.

The proliferation of the plant has implications for the resort town.
