What is Pondzilla Pro?
Pondzilla Pro is a biochemical catalyst. Do not confuse this with a non ionic surfactant. Pondzilla Pro should be used in conjunction with an herbicide and surfactant in a spray tank to control weeds and algae more effectively.
How does Pondzilla Pro improve effectiveness of an herbicide to kill pond weeds?
Pondzilla Pro gets the chemical into the weed faster. The aquatic herbicide alone isn't getting all of the chemical molecules into the target weed. Once inside the weed structure, Pondzilla increases the breakdown time of the weed.
Is Pondzilla Pro the same thing as good bacteria?
No. Pondzilla is an enzyme versus a bacteria. Pondzilla takes macro-molecules and converts them to micro-molecules. This makes the consumption of organic matter easier for bacteria. Pondzilla takes organic particles and converts them to soluble nutrients for beneficial bacteria treatments like Muck Remover and Pond Cleanse.
What pond weeds will Pondzilla Pro effectively break down during aquatic herbicide application?
Alligator weed
Duckweed
Eel grass
Elodea
Hygrophila
Long leaf pondweed
Variable leaf pondweed
Pondzilla Pro Dosage Rates:
Use 1-3 gallons per acre.
