Our recommendations

How to apply – Floating Plants and Algae

  • Dilute with tap water, and evenly spray the surface over the plants
    • Dilute 1 oz. in 1 gallon of water
  • If using with a surfactant, dilute products with tap water, and evenly spray the surface over the plants entirely
    • Dilute 1 oz. Bayflox and 1 oz. of surfactant in 1 gallon of water

How to apply – Submerged Plants and Lake Weeds

  • Review the product label to determine appropriate amount of product for your target treatment area. (Approximate coverage of each size bottle by dividing how much it treats up to by the average depth of your treatment area in feet)
  • Mix with tap water and spray over treatment area. (You will notice Bayflox clouding up and dispersing through treatment area)
  • Boost results on submerged lake weeds by tank mixing with Dibrox and Mizzen. Can mix all three and spray at once.

When to apply

  • Apply on a sunny, calm day when the water temperature is 60° F or warmer
  • Treat early in the morning, and when plants are actively growing and near the surface of the water
  • May re-treat every 7-14 days or when there is new growth

Other tips

  • Application rates based on a 1 ft. average depth, areas with dense growth may require a higher rate to be used
  • Mix with surfactant for floating and emergent plants

    I was having real problems with watermeal for the last few seasons on my one acre farm pond . This product cleared up this persistent type of algae with two applications and I’m enjoying a clean pond this summer . Thanks lake Restorsyion for your expertise!

    When we purchased this property a year ago, both ponds were severely neglected. Moslty overran by Watermeal and Duckweed but a mix of other algaes. I have treated our larger pond with a product from a different provided (still Fluomoxine) and had decent success, but as expected with these boogers, they come back. Our smaller pond catches most of the runoff and then feeds our larger pond, so naturally, what it deals with, so does our larger pond. We finally got our larger pond under control (for now) and shifted focus to the smaller pond. It was bright green and 100% covered with Duckweek and Watermeal. I purchased Bayflox and the Surfactant, mixed up 15 gals and went to work treating around 50% of the pond. 2 days later I noticed a color change in the plants, and 2 more days we started seeing it die off. After 5 days, the part I sprayed was totally clear… but the back half was still covered. Cue the Kansas winds and the back half moved to the front half and covered about 60% of the pond again. Due to weather and heat, I put off treating … and to my surprise, the Duckweed and Watermeal started to turn brown and die off, without a specific treatment. I can only assume that there was enough residual treatment in the water that when the wind pushed the untreated area into the treated area it started to kill it off. I’ll keep a close eye on it but as any of us would be, I was very pleased. Very sure we will need anotehr treatment soon, but happy I don’t have to do it within 30 days of the last treatment! Overal, we are very pleased with the products we purchased and have already referred my wifes sister to your site … they have a terribly lilly pad issue. Thanks so much.
