Aquatic Weed Control

Getting a handle on your weed problem is an easy task once you know the algae weed control chemicals you need. Researching ways to vanquish troublesome, heavy-infested weeds can require a few steps.

1. Identify the types of weeds that are present in your lake. Not all growth is harmful to the health of your pond.
2. Having found unwanted weeds, treat your pond or lake with a herbicide, several times a season, to kill them.
3. If excessive nitrates and phosphates (fertilizers) are making their way into your pond or lake, a cost-effective solution is a muck removal product. These weed control chemicals are most times a beneficial bacteria that breaks down the muck to limit algae and weed growth.
4. Once you have your weed problem under control, adding a pond dye will increase its beauty.

An important task is an accurate measurement of the size of your lake or pond. Perform this to determine the amount of weed control chemicals to use. Sanco has tips to calculate the size of your pond or lake. We also offer a pond measuring service using satellite imagery.
