If you’re tired of ducks in your pool, we have a solution for you, BioGuard AlgiGuard!

BioGuard AlgiGuard reduces the surface tension of pool water, which effects ducks’ buoyancy. They feel like they are going to drown and will quickly fly away, looking for more comfortable water to paddle in. It’s a gentle deterrent and won’t hurt them – it just causes them to make their own decision to leave!

BioGuard AlgiGuard also repels insects and prevents algae growth. Three tasks done, with one product!

⚠️SAFETY ANNOUNCEMENT ⚠️ While only at the beginning of the swimming season, we have seen a significant increase of incidents involving liquid acid (hydrochloric acid/muriatic acid/sulphuric acid/low fume acid). These liquid acids are common pool chemicals used to lower pH in the water.

We highly encourage you take the following steps when using liquid acid:
1. Read all safety directions before using.
2. Wear safety goggles and gloves when applying. Avoid breathing vapour.
3. Take care to ensure children DO NOT have access to the product, nor are present when it is used.
4. DO NOT apply from a height, as the product may splash into your eyes.
5. Store the product in a safe, dry, place, out of the way of children.

IS THERE A SAFER ALTERNATIVE? Absolutely yes! BioGuard's Lo'N'Slo is a dry acid. It is a granular product, not a liquid. As such, it will not splash when added to pool water, and if it is spilled or touches your skin, it can be safely brushed away without risking immediate burns. We strongly encourage you to switch to this safer product to protect you and your family https://bioguard.com.au/products/lonslo/

Despite what you might think, if you’re using your spa fairly regularly – you should leave it switched on. Yep, even during winter! It takes more energy and money to let the spa water cool and heat up again. Actually, maintaining the spa’s heat takes very little electricity at all – and if you have a cover, even less.
