## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this product poisonous to fish**
A: I would not use this where fish are present.

**Q: Curious to learn if the successful comments relate to positioning of water-butt? Can anyone confirm success where water-butt has some exposure to sun?**
A: My water butt is always in the sun but I keep it covered to preventing and protecting it from the sunlight and that prevents algae forming, still needs checking every so often.

**Q: Could this product be used for a water feature in the garden? Over winter, the water has acquired a nasty smell?**
A: Hiya, I haven’t used it in a water feature, only water butt. I have water features and used a product called ‘Sparkle’ that clears green water and is ok for wildlife to the water.

**Q: Is it suitable after treatment to use the water for watering vegetables/plants in an allotment please**
A: I don’t use the treated water for veg, only to water flowers, shrubs  etc! Not had a problem with it that I am aware of!
