Any of you guys use this? It looks safe enough.

I can't imagine why I would want to use snake oil when I have a net to remove that stuff. Only one additive that's necessary and that's dechlorinating agent if your have city water.

What do you mean with net? What kind?

Basically a long handled pool net with a fine mesh. You won't get it all but if you do it for 5 minutes every day it does all that is needed. It isn't like I've never used the snake oil additives, quite the opposite really. The thing is that they are just a gimmick with some basis that they actually do work......just a little.

I do have a pool net and a large fish net. Just don't like how sometimes it how makes the water very cloudy.

Just another part of maintenance. It outs that sit up into the water column and allows the mechanical filtration to catch it.

Here are the instructions accompanying This product (highlight is mine).

Another European product this time with no MSDS.
Special notice should be taken that this product does contain Lime which can alter the pH of the water. Additionally these products do not effectively work without increased and substantial aeration of the water.

Ok thanks. Probably not worth it, net method it is.

Vacuuming is another solution. Do you own a Shop-Vac?

Ah yes, I like that idea. I will have a look on amazon. Thanks.
I don't have a shop-vac btw.
