About Inspired By Nature, Inc.

Inspired By Nature, Inc. is a Pond & Lake Management Company located in Weston, Ohio. We pride ourselves in providing natural, safe and environmentally sound pond management products and services to our customers. Inspired By Nature, Inc. has been in business since 1996. Since our inception we have worked on over 8000 ponds in our region. Inspired By Nature, Inc. employs only knowledgeable and professional staff. We believe in working with nature to provide our customers a sound pond management program that is both, affordable and achievable. Our Customers are Residential Pond owners, Condominium Associations, Planned Communities, Builders, Site Developers and Commercial Businesses. We offer free educational classes to the public on pond management and are asked to present our philosophies at many speaking engagements. Inspired By Nature, Inc. works closely with township trustees, pond builders and several large site development firms to help plan out properties with water resources. Our business is ponds, we help pond owners maintain their water resources within the parameters that work best for them. No gimmicks, no unfounded promises or miracle products - just honest, sensible and affordable solutions to your pond management problems.

Pond management isn’t always as easy as some would like to think. At IBN we know that every pond is different. We treat each customer’s pond as a unique entity. All pond owners have similar problems. However, how those problems are arrived at may be very different from one pond to the next. We ask you questions about YOUR pond; how you use your pond, what goals you have for your pond, do you use it for swimming, fishing or both, do you have time to invest in physical management, and many other pertinent questions designed to help us understand YOUR needs better. Many folks want to do much of the work themselves, some want a hands off approach - we offer both.

Water is a very crucial resource that many take for granted. Home owners with ponds should do their very best to improve and ensure the quality of their water resources for the future. Many of us are more than willing to pay up to two dollars for a bottle of water because we are assured it is safe and alright for us to drink. What will that price be in ten years? Scary thought, isn’t it?

IBN has begun using chemicals ONLY as a last resort. This has been a very difficult decision for us. We feel that when used in moderation, with EXPERT, LICENSED APPLICATORS, chemicals can help us turn a disastrous pond situation into a pond that can progress towards a natural pond management practice. We strongly encourage our customers to have IBN apply any sort of chemicals to their pond.

If we can get to a pond in time to use natural methods then that is all the better. We prefer using natural means to manage your pond. Not only for the safety of your family but the health and safety to the aquatic ecosystem that exists within your pond. Our ideology starts at the tiniest organisms in the aquatic ecosystem– by restoring a natural balance your pond will become a healthy safe environment for not only the life within your pond but for your family that uses your pond. .

We are available for private in - house consultations and on site consultations. IBN offers several pond clinics throughout the season to help pond owners with better management practices. Feel free to call us at 419.669.4084 to schedule a consultation.
