Backyard Pond Problems

28 Jul 2011

If you have a backyard pond, you’re likely familiar with the problems that can come with it. From pond weeds and algae, to dirty, muddy water and pond turnover, maintaining your backyard pond can be quite a chore. But with the proper care and maintenance, you can effectively control and eliminate these common pond problems.

Sanco Industries carries a large line of aquatic products to take care of all of your pond problems including…

Pond Weeds – common weeds such as duckweed or cattails can be effectively treated with a combination of herbicides and surfactants. As always, the first step in properly treating your pond weeds is to correctly identify exactly what pond weeds you’re dealing with.
Algae – Algae growth is common in all ponds but can be easily treated and controlled with the right care and maintenance, including the use of algaecides. However, not all algae are bad. Chara is a type of filter algae that helps make your pond water clear and crisp.
Pond Turnover – This is caused by several factors including weather and oxygen levels. Turnover can easily be prevented by installing fountains or aerators in your pond.
Murky/Dirty Water – Pond dyes, colorants, and bacteria are proven ways to eliminate murky and dirty water that is caused by an abundance of sediments and particles.

No matter what your pond problems are, Sanco Industries has the products to help you solve them.
