Safety Data Sheet

How to Use

Step 1

Determine the size of your waterbody and measure out the amount of Aquashade needed.

Treatment Area (4 Feet Deep) Aquashade - 0.5 PPM* Aquashade - 0.8 PPM* Aquashade - 1.5 PPM*
Up To 1/4 Acre 20 oz 32 oz 60 oz
Up To 1/2 Acre 40 oz 64 oz 120 oz
Up To 1 Acre 80 oz 1 gal 1.9 gal
Parts per million*

Step 2

Pour the desired amount of Aquashade directly into the water body from the shoreline in 1 to 2 locations.


Tips

For best results, apply Aquashade as a pre-emergent (prior to plant germination) before the growing season. Aquashade may even be applied directly onto ice cover, (where applicable). Using Aquashade during the growing season will suppress the rate and extent of underwater growth but may not eliminate it.
Allow at least one hour for Aquashade to disperse throughout the water body before using water for swimming, irrigation, or livestock watering and avoid pouring concentrate within 50 ft. of these intake/use areas, allowing dye to self-disperse into them.
