Fighting The Algae
I walked through the New River Walk in Islington this morning and the Council were doing their best to fight the algae.
The theory is if you put bales of barley straw in water infected with the algae, it helps to combat it.
They don’t seem to be having much success, but then I didn’t when I tried it years ago in one of my ponds.




the photo seems to highlight duckweed and not algae so barley straw probably wont work against duck weed
