We all want to clean up our lake.YOU CAN SAY NO to a GREEN LAKE by using 0-Phosphorus Fertilizer on your yard this year!

Why Use Zero Phosphorus  Fertilizer?

 

Blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) are a common and natural component of the microscopic plants (plankton) in Lakes. Some types of blue-green algae produce natural toxins or poisons. When these algae die and break down, toxins can be released into the water and can kill fish, your pets, and humans!
