We want to bring your attention to an important issue concerning the potential contamination of moss balls with zebra mussels. This concern first arose in 2021, and it has recently resurfaced in the United States. While there have been no confirmed cases in Canada, we urge everyone to thoroughly inspect their inventory and shipments to ensure there are no unwanted hitchhikers.
Zebra mussels are highly invasive, and their presence in moss balls can have serious environmental consequences. As a precaution, please take the time to carefully check all moss ball products before distribution.
For detailed guidance on proper disposal and prevention, please refer to this resource: Information on the Disposal of Moss Balls.
Thank you for your vigilance in helping to protect our ecosystems.
