Boat and equipment sanitation, intensive trapping, and natural enemies (such as bass and sunfish) are ways to rid the water of rusty crayfish. The invertebrate in question (Orconectes rustics) needs its occurrence reported to the local natural resource management agency since no chemical is target-specific to rusty crayfish -- identifiable by black-banded claw tips and rust-spotted backs -- and therefore will affect native non-aggressive, non-invasive species. Preventative measures range from cleaning boats and equipment of aquatic animals, mud, and plants; disposing of unwanted bait; rinsing boats and equipment in high-pressure or hot-tap water; and spacing use of boats and equipment by a five-day drying out period.

∙ 8y agoDecreasing moisture levels and using baited traps are ways to rid lawns of crayfish. The invertebrates in question (Astacoidea and Parastacoidea superfamilies) dislike arid, dry conditions so moisture may be controlled, or not, by dispersing surface water or lowering the water table. Traps baited with decomposing fish or mashed sardines and anchored with lawn spikes and net staples against foraging possums, raccoons and skunks need to be checked regularly, with captured crayfish sustainably recycled as fishing bait or, if the lawn environment is chemical-free, steamed for appetizers, lunches, snacks or suppers.

You live in North America and your lawn doesn't drain well after a rain so you have crayfish holes in your lawn How do you get rid of the crayfish without having to capture them?
Create a different drain route for the water, or you can try to fill those holes with dirt. You could set up a seafood stand, if you have a permit or license for it! Crayfish is kind of nasty though This is an interesting problem I have never heard of before. But if your lawn is still flooded, another thing you can try is set a crayfish trap, which can be purchased from a local sporting goods store. This is how they harvest crayfish from commercial crayfish farms.

How do you get rid of noseeums?
It is difficult to get rid of "noseeums" or gnats because they are just too plentiful. One way to help control this type of pest is to use a bug zapper. Another way is to spray the lawn with a pesticide that is not harmful to children or pets. The gold mouthwash sprayed (not diluted) on the lawn will also help get rid of "noseeums".
