SAN ANTONIO – Invasive zebra mussels that are known to harm wildlife have been detected at Medina Lake and could spread to nearby waterways, according to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department.
TPWD on Tuesday announced that the detection marks the first time zebra mussels have been found in the San Antonio River Basin.
They were detected on Feb. 11 when someone showed TPWD officials an image of a zebra mussel at a boat ramp near Haby’s Cove. Biologists soon after discovered two zebra mussels attached to rocks in the area near Red Cove Marina.

AUSTIN, Texas - Lake Placid is fully infested with zebra mussels, according to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD). Infested status means that there is now evidence of an established, reproducing population of zebra mussels in the lake.
TPWD also said zebra mussels had been detected at Medina Lake. The detection in Medina Lake, located near Bandera, marks the first introduction of invasive zebra mussels in the San Antonio River Basin. Finding zebra mussels in a new river basin, unfortunately, means that they’ve most likely been transported there by boats, barges, or other equipment that didn’t take appropriate precautions to prevent their spread, said Monica McGarrity, TPWD Senior Scientist for Aquatic Invasive Species. The vigilance of all boaters and anglers is needed to stop or slow the further spread of zebra mussels in Texas lakes.
