Oh I think it's entirely possible this stuff works but with all the variables out there it would be easy to think it's doing more than it is, without identical ponds, precise water testing, controls etc.
Case in point: I used a bacteria product several years ago in the spring to combat FA, and low and behold not long after I applied it it disappeared and I was a believer! However after some careful observation I noticed that about the same time the FA disappeared Chara became the dominant aquatic vegetation due to increasing water temp. I soon realized that it was just a matter of the Chara out competing the FA due to a more favorable water temperature. Chara as most of us know is just another form of algae although it doesn't appear to be one.
Maybe it's just my personality but I'm also one of the last person's to buy into conspiracy theories.
