Why does this happen and how do I prevent it

Blanket Weed is a form of filamentous algae which will grow to carpet the surface of the pond and areas of flow (e.g. waterfalls). There are several factors that can cause excessive growth of Blanket Weed and although an effective treatment will remove algae the causative factors must be addressed to prevent further outbreaks.

What should I do

Manually remove as much blanket weed as possible.
Test your pond's pH which may have caused the outbreak.
Treat the cleared pond with your chosen treatment.
Encourage good plant growth by cutting away dead plants and adding good nutrients in plant food
Treat with a sludge treatment to eat dead plant matter and discourage further outbreaks.

Major influencing factors are :

Excess sunlight so you may benefit from adding floating plants – e.g. Lily's and water soldier – to cover up to 50 per cent of the pond surface area or use planting around the pond to create areas of shade across your pond. You do not want to completely shade the pond as this will discourage good plant growth, however finding a balance could reduce the recurrence of Blanket Weed.

More nutrients than your existing pond plants can use which stimulates algae growth. Nutrient levels can be controlled by encouraging plenty of healthy fast growing pond plants and regularly removing waste and sludge from the pond.

Always use Sludge buster after Algae control products to safely break down and remove dead algae.

Other areas to consider to help prevent further outbreaks and aid treatment:

Test water regularly (high nitrate levels will encourage algal blooms).

Keeping plants healthy by feeding with Flora Boost.

Using preventative products like, Sludge Buster or Bioactive Sludge Control once a month to steadily break down waste.

If Blanket Weed is becoming a frustrating and common problem in your pond you could consider fitting a Blagdon Electronic Blanket Weed Controller which helps remove a key Blanket Weed growth nutrient.

How long does it take for this product to clear algae

As every pond environment is unique and the product is a natural, bacterial product, it is not possible to say how long it will take to clear your pond. However, you can use the product more frequently to "kick-start" the process. You can also try adding the required dose to warm tap water and leaving overnight before putting into the pond. This will encourage the bacteria to incubate and be more effective more quickly. It is important to persevere with treatment as it can take up to 4 weeks to see any impact.

Effective and easy to use, safe for fish, wildlife and pets. Treats 10,740 litres of pond water. Add one capful for every 1,950 litres of pond water to a bucket of warm water and dissolve, distribute evenly over the pond surface. Remove as much blanket weed as possible by hand to increase the product's rate of effectiveness. This treatment will also help to encourage healthy, lush and healthy plant growth. Kills blanketweed and string algae, which can then be removed from the pond to prevent further outbreaks.
