How do muck-reducing Pellets reduce mucky bottoms?
Muck results from rotting vegetation, leaves, twigs, and fish waste accumulating at the bottom of your pond. Pond Muck Pellets are a unique blend of highly concentrated beneficial bacteria.
These pond muck reducer pellets, designed for spot-treating, work on contact to rapidly dissolve organic waste into an odorless gas that escapes unnoticed from the water column. Muck-Away Pellets are so effective that when used regularly, you can remove up to 5 inches of muck per year in northern climates and up to double in southern climates!
Why should I use Biological Muck Reducer Pellets?
Smith Creek Biological Pond Muck Reducer Pellets are an inexpensive alternative to dredging the muck in a pond. Over time, muck decreases the depth of your pond. It is also unpleasant to walk through when using a pond for swimming. Large amounts of nutrients are held in mud, making it ideal for algae and pondweeds to grow. Reducing silt by treating a pond with Biological Muck Reducer Pellets will reduce the nutrients available for algae and weeds.
Easy to apply Biological Pond Muck Reducer Pellets:
Simply broadcast Biological Muck Reducer Pellets evenly over the treatment area by hand or scoop. You should measure treatment areas in square feet or acres.
When to apply Biological Pond Muck Reducer Pellets:
Apply every 2-4 weeks when water temperatures exceed 40° F. Treatments should continue until you achieve the desired results. Wait three days after an algaecide or herbicide treatment to apply Biological Muck Reducer Pellets.
