Pond Boss Forums AQUATIC VEGETATION Controlling unwanted plants grass and weeds in stones

So, you want to kill grass & weeds next to the pond without harming the pond.

Roundup is not recommended near ponds, as the surfactant is bad for pond life IIRC. The active ingredient itself is not a problem, however, so we just need to find some one or some post which mentions the safe surfactant alternative.

I can search for it a little later this weekend.

BTW I do not think dead plants above the surface should have a large or immediate impact on FA in a pond. Removing the dead grass & weeks as much as possible would eliminate any FA impact.
