Pondzilla Pro - Breaks Up Floating Pond Scum & Algae plus more!
Buy Now: $125.99

Pondzilla Pro

Pondzilla utilizes the latest in enzyme technology to degrade 30%-60% of pond muck at one tenth the cost of physical cleaning. Pondzilla helps clarify water and degrade muck and sludge in lakes and ponds by activating the muck layer and stimulating bacterial activity. It contains surface-activating agents, that liberate pond muck and allow the active ingredients to speed up nature’s natural decomposition cycle. It works particularly well in ponds with filamentous problems. Use in combination with VitaStim MD Pellets (See Related Products below) for a optimum control of algae & muck.

Applicators like it because it cleans up the muck and sludge. They get called out to clean up plant material and have to tell the customer, “I cannot kill dead.” PondZilla accelerates the decomposition of plant debris.

For ponds that receive a lot of leaf matter, this is a good way to break them down. Leaves from soft maple and fast growing trees tend to degrade better than pine needles and leaves that are high in lignin (oak leaves). If leaves are already decomposed Pondzilla will help degrade them further. If leaves are fresh, Pondzilla will not complete the degradation over the course of a summer. Pondzilla also degrades pollen from pine trees, cottonwoods or others.

Pondzilla is very effective, when also used as an adjuvant to an algaecide or herbicide application, at controlling algae in ponds. While bacterial and enzyme products cannot kill aquatic plant growth alone, when used with algaecides or herbicides, they can help restore natural balance by quickly breaking down the dying weeds into sugars that the beneficial bacteria consume eliminating the need to physically remove dying plant material.

Pondzilla Pro will accelerate the decomposition of the following:

PlantsAlgaeCyanobacteria

Sago PondweedSpirogyaMicrocystis

Widgeon GrassHydrodictyonNodularia

CattailsMicractinium

Alligator WeedCladophora

Southern NaiadPithophora

Spike RushChara

BladderwortGolden Algae

PondZilla Pro can be used in the following applications: Water Feature & Small decorative ponds, Ponds and Lakes, Golf Course Ponds, Canals, Aquaculture, Fish Hatcheries, Raceways, Garden & Koi Ponds, Retention Ponds, Lagoons

What is Pondzilla & what does it do?
PondZilla is an activator, penetrant and cleaning agent developed from catalyst technology which helps to polish a lake or pond. Pondzilla works by reacting with dead plant matter in a water body and converting it to simple sugars. These sugars are then uptaken by beneficial bacteria and released to the atmosphere as a harmless gas. PondZilla can also be tank-mixed & applied with algaecides/herbicides at a rate of 1 - 2 gallons per surface acre .

NOTE: PondZilla Pro does not kill algae, however, it does break it down and makes it more susceptible to algaecides and herbicides.

Treatment Booster™ Plus

Wetting Agent, Activator and Penetrant - ALL IN ONE!

Treatment Booster™ Plus is used to enhance the effects of other liquid chemicals. To effectivey treat weeds and algae, two things must happen.

1st - The water tension has to be broken down to allow the chemical to penetrate the water in the appropriate spot.
2nd - The cuticle fo the weed has to be penetrated for the chemical to be absorbed.

Increase the wetting, spreading, sticking and dispersing of your aquatic algaecide and herbicide treatments. Treatment Booster Plus helps break down the protective "waxy" cuticle on leafy aquatic vegetation and helps penetrate the bud and bark areas on brush type nuisances. A by-product of the citrus industry, Treatment Booster Plus is a low viscosity oil that is compatible with most aquatic herbicides and algaecides and carries no water use restrictions.

Researchers have found that up to 70% of the effectiveness of a pesticide can be dependent on the spray application.

Avocet (ShoreKlear) PLX w/Surfactant

Avocet® PLX (active ingredient: 54-percent glyphosate) is an EPA-registered systemic herbicide that provides excellent control of emergent weeds (cattail, reeds, water lillies) in all flowing or non-flowing fresh and brackish water. Avocet PLX can also be used on shorelines, landscapes, turf and non-crop areas, even native habitats. As part of the NexGen line of enhanced post-patent chemistries, Avocet PLX uses only the best active ingredients and improved manufacturing processes. University testing proves that NexGen reformulations actually outperform traditional pesticide brands for efficacy and value. Avocet PLX even contains its own patented surfactant, so you eliminate the cost of adding other surfactants.

Fast-acting, systemic mode of action. Avocet PLX effectively controls the whole plant and minimizes regrowth by moving down through the foliage into the root system. Visible effects on most annual weeds can be seen in a few days.
Broad-spectrum control. Do a more thorough job by getting exceptional, dependable control of a wide range of emergent and floating plants, brush, grasses and herbaceous weeds.
Multi-site use. In addition to golf courses and landscapes, Avocet PLX is approved for use in recreational areas and other non-crop sites. It’s ideal when restoring and maintaining native habitat areas.
Versatile application options. Simplify your control program by using Avocet PLX as a broadcast foliar spray or injected or applied onto freshly cut stumps for tree and woody vegetation control.
Avocet PLX mixes readily with water to be applied as a foliar spray on emerged plants, using most standard industrial or field-type sprayers.
Works great for beaches and shorelines or anywhere emergent weeds grow.
Avocet PLX is a non-selective herbicide, meaning it will kill what it touches. If you want to control only a section of your weeds, only spray that section.
There is no water use restrictions for this chemical.

ShopTJB Note: Avocet is designed to work by spraying on the green growing foliage and is absorbed by the weed it will travel through the shaft of the weed and down into the root system. The weeds the will begin turning brown but you should not try and cut or remove them right away. Leave them for a few more days so the chemicals can travel all the way down to the root system. When trying to kill cat tails you have to remember that cat tails only use 1/3 of their root system at a time. With this being said you do have to reapply the spray 1 to 2 times more to kill the complete root system. There are no water use restriction with this product.
