Ideal for use in ponds as temperatures drop in Fall and in early Spring before water temperature reaches 60 degrees. The blend of winter bacteria and enzymes produce optimal results during cooler months.

What is WinterGard?

Special blend of cold water bacteria, enzymes, and stimulants in water soluble packets

What makes this pond treatment special?

This formula hits peak performance when water temperature drops in fall and winter. 

What does WinterGard do?

It protects the pond and fish from winter water quality issues like rising nutrients and accumulating waste. These issues trigger algae blooms, reduce clarity, and decrease oxygen levels.

Boost results by combining WinterGard with Pondzilla Pro.

While WinterGard is reducing nutrients and organics, Pondzilla accelerates the breakdown time of new leaves falling into the pond. Over time leaves break down into muck which is consumed by bacteria like WinterGard. Adding Pondzilla to your fall treatment schedule reduces the time it takes for leaves to turn to muck and then be consumed by pond bacteria.

When to use WinterGard with Pondzilla

Use both products anytime water is below 60 degrees and there is an abundance of leaf build up.

Safe to apply WinterGard and Pondzilla at the same time
