CONTACT USALGAE CONTROL
Nuisance algae blooms (pond scum/green slime/moss/ pea soup) most commonly occur during the warm summer months due to an overabundance of nutrients found within the body of water.Phosphorous most commonly contributes nuisance algae blooms, but nitrogen can play a role as well. Other factors that encourage algae growth are light levels, pH, and temperature. The more nutrient- enriched the body of water, the more likely algae to grow.
SUBMERGED WEEDS
The health and quality of any aquatic ecosystem largely depends on the proper management of aquatic plants present in that body of water.Properly managed, aquatic vegetation provides habitat and protection for wildlife in and around the body of water. Allowing the desired plants to be healthy will create an overall better aquatic ecosystem.
