WHAT IS AQUASHADE? Aquashade is a blend of blue and yellow dyes specifically designed to screen or shade portions of the sunlight spectrum (red-orange and blue-violet) required by underwater aquatic plant and algae growth. This action effectively inhibits photo-synthesis in young, bottom growth and may prevent development altogether if applied early enough in the season.

AQUASHADE is primarily effective at depths of two feet or greater. Inhibition of Planktonic (suspended) algae blooms has also been proven. Desirable, floating leaved plants such as lilies are unaffected if they have already surfaced and concentrated product does not contact leaves directly. No restrictions on swimming, fishing, irrigation or stock watering. Leaves water a pleasing blue color.

WHAT IS CLEARIGATE? CLEARIGATE is a chelated copper formulation containing an emulsified surfactant/penetrant for highly effective control of coarse (thick cell-walled) filamentous algae, muscilaginous (colonial) planktonic algae, Chara and a variety of emergent, floating and submerged aquatic plants. Vegetation controlled includes: Cladophora, Pithophora, Lyngbya, Microcystis, Hydrilla, pondweeds, watermilfoil, naiad and other species having a sensitivity to copper absorption in conjunction with a penetrant. No water use restrictions during or following treatment.

a. CLEARIGATE is registered for use crop and non-crop irrigation conveyance systems: ditches, canals, laterals; potable water reservoirs; lakes; farm, fish golf course industrial and swimming ponds.

b. CLEARIGATE has no water use restrictions during or following application.

c. CLEARIGATE is NOT a Federally "RESTRICTED USE" pesticide.

d. CLEARIGATE mixes readily in the water for top-to bottom, side-to-side and downstream control. Adjuvant/emulsion technology increases contact time in flowing water.

e. CLEARIGATE saves time and money. Product can be applied by one applicator. Set up     systems can be left unattended.

f. CLEARIGATE is non-corrosive to equipment.

WHAT IS AQUATRINE? Aquatrine algaecide controls problem-producing algae and inhibits rapid reinfestation within fish and shrimp aquaculture systems. Benefits of algae control in aquaculture systems included reduced mortality, increased productivity and improved harvest conditions.

The exact formulation of Cutrine-Plus Liquid, but labeled specifically for use in fish and shrimp aquaculture facilities. Provides use instructions for ponds, tanks and raceway systems.

ADVANTAGES

a. AQUATRINE is E.P.A. registered for use in ponds, tanks and raceways used for the culturing of fish and shrimp.

b. AQUATRINE is equally effective in fresh water, saltwater and brackish water since the mixed ethanolamine complexes prevent the reaction of copper with other chemical components in    the water.

WHAT IS WEEDTRINE®-D?

Weedtrine-D is a broad spectrum liquid aquatic herbicide for use in and around still lakes, ponds, ditches, non-crop or non-planted areas. It contains 8.53% active diquat dibromide (6,7 dihydrodipyrido [1,2-a: 27, 17-c} pyrazinediium dibromide).

HOW DOES WEEDTRINE-D WORK?

Weedtrine-D acts as a contact killer in plants by disrupting cellular membranes. Loss of these membranes allows the active ingredient to move into the plant and "short circuit" photosynthesis.

ADVANTAGES OF WEEDTRINE-D:

  • controls a broad range of aquatic plants including submerges, floating and emergent weeds and certain filamentous algae.
  • is specifically formulated for homeowner use for spot treatment of small weed patches or back yard ponds.
  • kills plants quickly through rapid absorption.
  • is easy to apply.
  • has a low toxicity to fish and other aquatic organisms.
  • is compatible in tank mixes with Cutrine-Plus algicide to increase effectiveness.
  • can be used in non-crop or non-planted areas such as around buildings, fence lines, driveways, patios, etc.

SPECIAL NOTE:

Waters treated with Weedtrine-D should not be used for irrigation, animal consumption or domestic purposes for 5 days after treatment.

Do not use Weedtrine-D in muddy waters as deactivation of active ingredient will occur.

See label for use site restrictions, specific use directions and additional precautions before using Weedtrine-D.
