Slimy growth 😱
« on: September 24, 2024, 01:11:12 pm »
Hi folk. Not been on here for a bit but need to pick a brain or two again. This year has been pretty soggy - as has everywhere! Lots of patches of a green slimy fungus or algae has been spreading over areas of hard standing and in particular the guests parking area. It’s like a slippery sea weed. Pictures suggest is something with a common name of witches butter!
Improving drainage isn’t really an easy option but has anyone had this and got any ideas to irradiate it?? Greg

I know it's not eco friendly but I've used a solution of bleach in desperation
