Beneficial Pond Bacteria: Muck Doctor

19 Aug 2012

Sanco’s concentrated beneficial pond bacteria, Muck Doctor, is getting excellent reviews.  Many of our customers that have used it in their ponds and lake front properties have noticed a drastic decrease in the amount of muck around beach and dock areas.  

·         One lake front property owner discovered a large post at the end of his dock that he never knew was there.  The Muck Doctor ate so much of the sludge the post was revealed!

·         Another customer had to adjust their Jet Ski lift because the Muck Doctor consumed such a significant amount of muck under the lift that the lift was tilted!

How it works:

Muck Doctor is a highly concentrated multi-strain bacteria that has been compressed into a dry spike for easy application.  The bacteria in Muck Doctor produce an enzyme.  The enzyme then goes to work breaking down the sludge and muck on the pond/lake floor.  Once the material is broken down the bacteria will consume the sludge and muck.  The bacteria turn the muck into several byproducts…CO2, water, and a very small fraction of their own waste.  

Muck Doctor is 100% safe for fishing and swimming.  There are no restrictions after application.  For additional information on Sanco's Muck Doctor contact our experts.
