Barley straw have been used for years to keep ponds clear, but it takes up to 4 weeks to start working. Barley-bio Alage Control is a liquid alternative to barley straw, which starts to work as soon as you add it to the pond. It contains no synthetic chemicals or artificial pesticides and is made in the UK using organic barley straw. Barley-bio Alage Control acts as a natural algicide, killing the algae by breaking down the cell wall, which stops the pond water turning green and stops stringy blanket weed from forming. It can be used in any type of pond and with any species of fish. Product stores for up to 18 months. Barley-bio Alage Control is a totally natural product, so it may take a few weeks before you see the full effect. If it is not working quickly enough, you can add more as it will not harm your fish, pond plants, wildlife or pets – it is impossible to overdose. It is best added near to a re-circulating system or pond pump, but otherwise, it can simply be added to the surface of the water. Supplied in 500ml or 1L bottles (with a dosing chamber built in), add it as follows :-
- To cure a pond of algae and blanket weed – add 125 mls per 4500 litres initially followed by 20ml per week.
- As a preventative measure – add 20 mls per week at the beginning of March until the autumn.
- For smaller ponds (less than 2250 litres) – add 50mls as an initial dose and then add 10ml per week.

lots of ideas for gardening with nature in mind. I use the duckweed control and barley straw extract to keep my pond healthy.

An excellent company, that I have been using for quite a few years now. I can rely on their products to not be harmful to wildlife Also, If I have a problem and email them for advice, they are very helpful and reply promptly. Jon recently advised me on my very green pond. I used Ecopond’s barley bio algae control, and it worked.
