POND DYES

The use of pond dyes is a popular way to control aquatic weed growth.  Pond dyes work on the light reduction principle.  All plants need sunlight to grow.  By reducing the amount of light penetration into the water, the dyes effectively reduce weed growth.  Early application is critical; dyes should be applied as early as possible in the growing season.  To apply, simply pour liquid dye into pond (or throw the water-soluble bags in).  The dye will completely mix throughout the pond within a short time.  These dyes will not stop weed growth, but used consistently, they will greatly reduce it.

EASYPRO CONCENTRATED POND DYE is a nontoxic and harmless blue pond dye for use in all sizes of ponds and lakes.  Treated waters can be used for swimming and irrigation once the product is evenly dispersed.  Compatible for use with most aquatic herbicides and algaecides.  One quart is equal to 3/4 of a gallon of other dyes on the market!  One quart treats one acre of water 3' deep (approximately one million gallons).  This concentrated quart will save you in shipping costs!

AQUASHADE is the only pond dye registered with the E.P.A. for weed and algae prevention.  Available in 8 oz bottles for water gardens or in 1 gallon containers for pond use. One gallon treats one acre, 4' deep.

AQUASHADOW is a powder form of Aquashade.  Aquashadow comes in a water soluble bag that can be tossed directly into the pond. Each bag treats 1/4 acre, 4' deep.

CYGNET SELECT pond dye is very similar to Aquashade. Cygnet Select comes in one gallon containers; one gallon treats one acre, 4' deep. Cygnet Select is not E.P.A. registered and therefore is more economical than Aquashade. Customers repeatedly tell us that they do not notice any performance difference between these two products.
