What problem does this solve?

Testing your lake for fungicides and pesticides is important because these chemicals can enter the water from runoff or landscaping, potentially harming fish, plants, wildlife, and humans. Monitoring them helps guide management actions to reduce contamination and protect overall water quality and ecosystem health. This test includes testing of the following categories of analytes:

1. Carbamates (inhibit acetylcholinesterase in insects; highly toxic to aquatic life)

Analytes: 3 Hydroxycarbofuran, Aldicarb, Aldicarb sulfone, Aldicarb sulfoxide, Aminocarb, Bendiocarb, Carbaryl, Carbofuran, Fenobucarb, Fenoxycarb, Methiocarb, Methomyl, Mexacarbate, Pirimicarb, Propoxur
Potential lake impacts: Extremely toxic to fish, amphibians, and aquatic invertebrates; can bioaccumulate and disrupt aquatic food webs.

2. Organophosphates (acetylcholinesterase inhibitors; highly toxic to aquatic organisms)

Analytes: Acephate, Dicrotophos, Dimethoate, Isocarbophos, Methamidophos, Monocrotophos, Omethoate, Oxydemeton methyl
Potential lake impacts: Acute toxicity to fish and invertebrates; can disrupt aquatic ecosystems and pose risks to birds and mammals.

3. Neonicotinoids (systemic insecticides affecting the nervous system)

Analytes: Acetamiprid, Clothianidin, Dinotefuran, Imidacloprid, Thiacloprid, Thiamethoxam, Flonicamid
Potential lake impacts: Highly toxic to aquatic insects, pollinators, and other invertebrates; persistent in water and sediment.

4. Pyrethroids and related (neurotoxins for insects)

Analytes: Rotenone, Piperonyl Butoxide
Potential lake impacts: Can cause fish kills; toxic to aquatic invertebrates; may affect non-target species.

5. Herbicides (target plant growth)

Analytes: Ametryn, Butafenacil, Chlorotoluron, Chloroxuron, Cycluron, Desmedipham, Ethofumesate, Isoproturon, Linuron, Metobromuron, Metribuzin, Siduron, Simetryn, Tebuthiuron
Potential lake impacts: Can kill or stunt aquatic plants, disrupting habitat and oxygen production; may cause algal blooms by altering nutrient balance.

6. Fungicides (target fungal pathogens; some affect mitochondria or sterol synthesis)

Analytes: Azoxystrobin, Benalaxyl, Bitertanol, Boscalid, Bupirimate, Buprofezin, Carbendazim, Carbetamide, Carboxin, Chlorantraniliprole, Clethodim, Clofentezine, Cyazofamid, Dimethomorph, Dimoxystrobin, Epoxiconazole, Etaconazol, Ethirimol, Etoxazole, Fenamidone, Fenarimol, Fenbuconazole, Flufenacet, Fluoxastrobin, Fluquinconazole, Flusilazole, Flutolanil, Flutriafol, Fuberidazole, Furalaxyl, Hexythiazox, Imazalil, Iprovalicarb, Kresoxim-Methyl, Mandipropamid, Mepronil, Metalaxyl, Methabenzthiazuron, Myclobutanil, Novaluron, Nuarimol, Oxadixyl, Penconazole, Pencycuron, Picoxystrobin, Prochloraz, Propamocarb, Propargite, Prothioconazole, Pyracarbolid, Pyraclostrobin, Pyrimethanil, Spirodiclofen, Spirotetramat, Spiroxamine, Tetraconazole, Thiophanate-Methyl, Triadimefon, Tricyclazole, Trifloxystrobin, Triflumizole, Triflumuron, Vamidothion, Zoxamide
Potential lake impacts: Can harm beneficial fungi and microorganisms in sediment and water; some are toxic to fish or invertebrates; persistent fungicides can accumulate in sediments.

7. Insect Growth Regulators / Miscellaneous Insecticides

Analytes: Bifenazate, Carfentrazone-Ethyl, Chlorantraniliprole, Cycluron, Ethiprole, Flonicamid, Tebufenozide, Thidiazuron, Pyriproxyfen, Methoxyfenozide
Potential lake impacts: Disrupt insect development, which can alter the aquatic food web; may affect non-target insect populations that fish and amphibians rely on.

8. Miscellaneous / Other Pesticides

Analytes: Diisopropyl methylphosphonate (nerve agent degradation product), Quinoline (industrial chemical), Ethirimol, Fenuron, Butafenacil, Triadimefon
Potential lake impacts: Some of these are persistent, may be toxic to aquatic life, or can alter nutrient cycling and water chemistry.

Summary of Categorical Risks to Lake Health:

  • Aquatic toxicity: Many carbamates, organophosphates, neonicotinoids, and pyrethroids are acutely toxic to fish and invertebrates.
  • Habitat disruption: Herbicides can damage aquatic plants and algae, reducing oxygen production and altering food webs.
  • Ecosystem imbalance: Fungicides and insect growth regulators can disrupt microbial and insect communities, affecting the entire aquatic ecosystem.
  • Persistence & bioaccumulation: Many of these chemicals can remain in sediments and water, leading to long-term contamination and cumulative effects.
