How to Winterize with Microbe Lift

Leaves, bug carcasses and other organic deposits have a stagnating effect upon your pond during the fall and winter months. The manufacturers of Microbe Lift have designed a pond additive for use over the winter months. It will help to speed up the process of leaf decay as well as assist in the decomposition of organic pond sludge. Start your pond's treatment with Microbe Lift liquid pond additive in late fall or early winter and look forward to a healthier pond environment in the spring.
