When the Leaves fall....

When the Leaves fall, it is time to cover the Pond with netting! Leaves that blow into the pond will sink to the bottom and create all kinds of problems:

~ they will decompose using up valuable oxygen in the process

~ they will increase the amount of "muck" in the pond bottom

~ spring start-up will be harder because the bottom will have to be cleaned out!


Prevent all these problems
easily by covering the pond with pond netting. Adding cool weather bacteria will help eliminate any small particles that fall through and will also clean up anything already decomposing from summer time plants.The PondMarket carries a wide variety of winterization items, both individually and in kit form: Click Here for Pond Winterization
