Administered as a dry granular powder, Lake Guard™ floats on the water meaning effective concentrations are limited only to the surface areas where cyanobacteria are most abundant.

Lake Guard™ travels from the point of deployment downstream, carried by the currents, along with cyanobacterial cells and forms a perfect spatial formation around cyanobacterial aggregates.

This means that throughout the process, Lake Guard™ creates the optimal exposure ratio between algaecide and cyanobacteria-cells consequently reducing the effective dose.

Ideally, Lake Guard™ can (and should) be administered upon detecting first signs of cyanobacterial activity, using only small quantities, thus preventing the occurrence of blooms altogether.

Lake Guard™ treatment is scalable to large water bodies.
