Description
Summit's Clear-Water® Barley Straw Treatment offers a natural and effective solution for maintaining clean and clear water in animal watering troughs and ponds. Using the natural properties of barley straw, this treatment helps prevent the growth of algae and other unwanted organisms, ensuring a healthier environment for livestock and aquatic life.
Application in Animal Watering Troughs
Maintaining clean water in livestock troughs is crucial for animal health. Summit's barley straw treatment is designed to be placed directly into the trough. The heavy plastic container prevents animals from consuming the straw and allows it to float, releasing beneficial byproducts as it decomposes. This process helps maintain water clarity and reduces the frequency of cleaning.
Application in Ponds
For pond applications, the barley straw treatment can be placed in the water, where it will naturally decompose and release algae-inhibiting byproducts. This method is effective in maintaining clear water and supporting a healthy aquatic ecosystem. It's important to start treatment early in the season for optimal results.
Usage Instructions
- Placement: Place the barley straw treatment in the water body, ensuring it is fully submerged or floating as appropriate.
- Timing: For best results, introduce the treatment early in the season before algae growth becomes problematic.
- Replacement: Replace the treatment unit every six months to maintain continuous water clarity.

Its long-lasting effectiveness and ease of use make it an excellent choice for those seeking environmentally friendly water treatment solutions.
By using the natural properties of barley straw, this treatment supports the health of livestock and aquatic life without the need for harmful chemicals.
