Cecil:
Did you say arsenic based? When a former lake chair wrote in our newsletter "We have blue green algae, but we don't think it is the toxic type" I had lots of neighbors in panic mode wondering if the water was safe (a dog died that year in Fenton from cyanobacteria exposure). They had never done water testing before, and still refused to test the water. Later on they set up a "task force" of people that didn't live on this lake to study the problems and they tested the water - they sent it somewhere and the test performed then was the type of test they do for drinking water. I was told it came out a little high in arsenic. Are those K-Bomb type products arsenic based? I assumed the arsenic thing was probably from pressure treated wood used on all the decks around the lake (built in the 70's).
The plot thickens.
