Algae Treatment Services
Industry-standard products are applied to ponds which have excessive algal growth. ILM works to minimize the concentration and frequency of treatment. Chelating agents are used in accordance with guidelines established by the Illinois Water Survey. All chemicals used by ILM are EPA registered and safe for aquatic use. It is desirable to limit the concentration and frequency of treatment since algal populations can develop resistance to treatment through time. A legal limit of 1ppm of copper can be added to a body of water during any given week.
Minor Trash Removal Services
During a scheduled service visit ILM technicians will remove minor trash from the shoreline (2ft. into the water and 5ft. onto the land). This service is performed in an effort to improve the health and aesthetics of a pond. Every effort will be made to collect all visible trash; however we cannot guarantee complete removal of all garbage in the area. “Minor Trash removal” is considered a 5gallon bucket of material per pond. Upon request a comprehensive trash removal proposal can be provided.
