Description

We cannot ship EPA registered Algaecides or Herbicides to the following states: Alaska – California – Connecticut – Delaware –  Hawaii – New Hampshire – New Jersey – New York – Maine – Maryland – Massachusetts  -Oregon – Rhode Island – Washington State – Vermont

GENERAL INFORMATION

Do not treat more than 1/3rd to 1/2 of surface at once in ponds with fish.

CUTRINE-PLUS GRANULAR ALGAECIDE is effective in controlling a broad range of benthic (bottom-growing) algae including: Chara, Nitella and filamentous forms.

CUTRINE-PLUS GRANULAR ALGAECIDE is  also  effective in controlling the rooted aquatic plant, Hydrilla verticillata (Water Thyme).

The ethanolamines in CUTRINE-PLUS GRANULAR ALGAECIDE prevent the precipitation of copper with carbonates and bicarbonates in the water.

Waters treated with CUTRINE-PLUS GRANULAR ALGAECIDE may be used for swimming, fishing, drinking water treatment, livestock watering or irrigating turf, or- namental plants or crops following treatment.

Pounds of Cutrine-Plus Granular Algaecide to Apply per Acre

Form of Algal Growth	Height of Plant Growth (feet)
	1	2	3
Bottom Filamentous	20	40	60
Chara / Nitella	30	60	90
Hydrilla	70	140	210

 

Distribute CUTRINE-PLUS GRANULAR ALGAE- CIDE evenly over the water surface directly over the targeted vegetation, varying rates with the height of the vegetation in the water column. A dry fertilizer spreader may be used to ensure even distribution.

 

SMALL AREA (SPOT) TREATMENT (under 5,000 sq. ft.)

For treatment around small areas such as docks, rafts, water intakes, etc., apply product uniformly at the rate of

1.5 pounds (24 oz.) per 1,000 square feet. (In areas less than 1 ft. deep, reduce dosage by 2 oz. per inch of water per 1,000 sq. ft. so as to not exceed 1.0 ppm copper).

This pesticide is toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates. Waters treated with this product may be hazardous to aquatic organisms. Treatment of aquatic weeds and algae can result in oxygen loss from decomposition of dead algae and weeds. This oxygen loss can cause fish and invertebrate suffocation. To minimize this hazard, do not treat more than ½ of the water body to avoid depletion of oxygen due to decaying vegetation. Wait at least 14 days between treatments. Begin treatment along the shore and proceed outwards in bands to allow fish to move into untreated areas. Consult with the State or local agency with primary responsibility for regulating pesticides before applying to public waters to determine if a permit is required.
This product may be toxic to trout and other species of fish. Fish toxicity is dependent upon the hardness of water. Do use in water containing trout if the carbonate hardness of the water does not exceed 50ppm. Do not use in waters containing Koi and hybrid goldfish. Not intended for use in small volume, garden pond systems.
Certain water conditions including low pH (≤6.5), low dissolved organic carbon (DOC) levels (3.0 mg/L or lower), and “soft” waters (i.e. alkalinity less than 50 mg/L), increases the potential acute toxicity to non-target aquatic organisms.
