Description:The CD3 System is a recent advancement in technology designed to remove plants, animals and water from watercraft. However, it is unknown how effective these tools are at removing AIS from watercraft when compared to hand removal. Previous work has compared hand removal and high-pressure washing as removal strategies for aquatic macrophytes and small-bodied organisms, with hand removal and pressure washing being comparable for macrophytes and pressure washing being more effective at removing small-bodied organisms (Minnesota DNR 1994, Rothlisberger et al.2010). Determining how CD3 System efficacy compares to these prevention tools can help AIS managers make decisions on whether and how to use this prevention tool.
