Control of Algae
Control
of algae with chemicals is now no longer possible, due to the withdrawal
of Clarosan and Reglone as a result of European reviews.
You need
to know what type of algae you are dealing with, unicellular (green
water) or filamentous (blanket weed) as this can make a difference to
treatment methods and time taken for control. Click
