Applied Biochemists Yellowtrine Algaecide – Mustard Algae Treatment (408622A)
Targeted Mustard Algae Control for Lasting Pool Clarity
Mustard algae (also called yellow algae) is one of the most persistent pool problems—it clings to walls, hides in shady areas, and resists normal chlorine treatments. Applied Biochemists Yellowtrine is a powerful, fast-acting algaecide designed to eliminate and prevent mustard algae, restoring your pool’s clarity and helping maintain safe, inviting water.
Why Choose Yellowtrine?
Unlike general-purpose algaecides, Yellowtrine is formulated specifically to penetrate the protective coating that makes mustard algae so resistant. It works quickly to eradicate visible growth while preventing regrowth with regular use. Safe for all pool types and surfaces, Yellowtrine is non-foaming and designed for hassle-free application alongside your standard sanitizer program.
