Terms and Conditions

Nearly every pond owner is forced to deal with algae control at some point and time. Typically algae is found in three common forms:

Filamentous algae is made up of long strands of algae cells joined end to end. Often refurred to a " string algae", this unsightly nuisance forms large mats on the surface, grows like moss on rocks, logs and other underwater structures and is very prolific.

Chara is a bottom growing algae that resembles a plant like form. Often mistaken for an aquatic plant, Chara grows in dense patches but is not rooted to the bottom. A strong, musky odor and gritty texture is observed when the plant is examined out of the water. Usually found in clear, often spring fed ponds.

Planktonic algae or "pea green soup" algae is caused by microscopic algae cells free floating in the water. Mild cases may cause the pond to have a greenish tinge to it while a severe bloom will block visability into the water.

Cattails & Other Emergent Plants Eergent plats grow around the perimeter of a pond in shallow water with all or most of their foliage above water. Examples are Cattails, Bullrush, Reeds, Purple Loose Strife, Pennywart and Piceralwood.

Pond Weeds The pondweed family has over a dozen varieties with these four being the most common: Sago, Clasping Leaf, Curly Leaf, Large Leaf.

Elodea This plant grows in thick clumps and is usually not a big problem, the leaves are in whorls of three around a stem.

Duckweed and Watermeal Duckweed is hard to control, it forms a thin layer over the surface in calm ponds. It will not grow well in moving water so use of a surface areator will help in controlling growth.

Waterlilies Waterlilies can become a problem in many ponds, they grow off of a large central root system ( much like aspen trees). Some growth is great for shade and cover for fish, but when left unchecked they will over populate quickly.

Eurasian Milfoil Spreads very easy since fragments or the plant can re-root and grow. Do not try to remove with a rake!

Other Less Common Weeds Include Niaiad, Coontail, Bladderwor, Hydrilla, Parrot Feather and Water Hyacinth.

Fortunately most types of algae are fairly easy to control. The products listed below will provide effective control of algae when used acording to the label. Unfortuately algae can be quick to return after treatment. Ducks, Geese, Herons and other aquatic wildlife can easily transport it between bodies of water. Repeated applicatons throughout a season may be necessary.
