Swell Barley Straw Bales

Barley Straw floating in your pond can make a real difference with this, and correctly applied to your pond, it should help clear things up in no time, in conjunction with your filtration system.

Product Information
Barley Straw is the perfect way of controlling blanket weed. Not only is it effective, it's also completely natural. Our bales are the perfect size for a variety of ponds.
Algae can be a real problem left unchecked. Blanket weed can quickly spread over your pond and stop vital light and oxygen from getting through. It can block drainage, ruin the look of the pond and cause unpleasant odours to permeate the garden.
Barley Straw is a cheap and environmentally friendly way to combat algae. As it breaks down, algae busting chemicals are released into the water. Microbes consume the nutrients that algae thrive on too, so it stops any further outbreaks.
