Phostrogen algae killer
How does Algae Killer Work
The active ingredients work by ungluing the algae cells from the surfaces that they adhere to. Rain or wind then washes or blows the cells away
How do I make up the concentrate into solution ready to apply
Using the measuring cap pour 2 x 25ml measures into 1 litre of water. This should then be sprayed onto the algae soiled surface
When treating moss, lichen and liverworts will it disappear without scrubbing.
No, Algae Killer works in a similar way by ungluing the plant. This stops the moss, lichen or liverwort from feeding so that it dies. However the physical remains will need to be removed
Can I use Algae Killer on moss in the lawn
No, the product is only designed to treat surfaces and not moss within a sward
Is it safe to use around desired plants
Whilst toxicity to plants is low, spraying desired plants directly should be avoided. A small amount of drift or spotting may cause slight spotting but will not kill the plant
What surfaces can I use Algae Killer on
Algae Killer can be used on any surface that one would clean with water i.e. almost anything
How often should I retreat
Once treated, the active element of Algae Killer remains on the surface stopping re infestation for up to 6 months. However it is safe to retreat as often as desired.
Why do I need to pre wet porous surfaces before applying the Algae killer
Because the algae grows on the surface this is where the Alage Killer needs to work. By pre wetting porous surfaces this ensures that none of the active ingredients or drawn down into the material where they would not work as effcetively
