In waterfowl outbreaks, wild birds should be dispersed from affected areas and water levels stabilized. Elimination of large, shallow areas may prevent conditions favorable for decay of vegetation and die-off of invertebrates, but again, rapid and proper disposal of dead carcasses is the most effect...
