    APPLICATION RATES FOR PONDS AND LAKES:
    Apply
    Copper Sulfate crystals at a rate of 2-3 lbs. per acre-foot of water. An
    acre-foot is 43,560 square feet in area x 1 foot deep. Put the crystals
    in a porous bag and drag it through the water until the crystals
    dissolve. Use an empty milk jug as a float to keep the bag near the
    surface. Copper Sulfate can also be applied by just broadcasting over
    the water and letting it sink. Apply in early spring prior to formation
    of matted growth. Chemical treatment works best when the water
    temperature is between 60°F and 80°F and algae clumps are broken up
    during chemical application. Avoid treating when the water temperature
    is above 80°F and treat only 1/4 to 1/3 of the vegetation at a time to
    prevent oxygen depletion and a possible fish kill.
    APPLICATION RATES FOR WATER TANKS AND FOUNTAINS:
    Add
    Copper Sulfate  at the rate of 1/8 teaspoon per 100 gallons of water to
    kill existing algae. It should then be mechanically removed. Cover or
    shade the tanks to help slow algae growth
    .
    Root Control:
    Step 1
    M
    easure
    out about one-half cup of medium sized Copper Sulfate crystals. Pour
    the crystals into the commode or toilet stool. Flush the toilet.
    Step 2
    Repeat this
    procedure 2 or 3 more times.  Flush the toilet several more times to
    make sure the crystals are carried outside of your home and into the
    sewer line.
    Step 3
    Observe the
    flow of your toilet for the next several days. Copper Sulfate does not
    work overnight. It requires several days to several weeks to kill the
    roots and it may take even longer for the dead roots to decay and break
    away, thereby clearing the sewer line and restoring proper flow from
    your toilet.
    Step 4
    Repeat the procedure every three to four months using smaller amounts of Copper Sulfate to prevent the roots from growing back.
    Tips
    Tree roots that come in contact with a
    Copper Sulfate solution will only absorb the copper for a short
    distance into the root system, effectively killing the root at the site
    without damaging the tree or shrub.
    Copper Sulfate has also been used in homes with septic systems without harming the bacterial action of the tanks.
    Do not pour Copper Sulfate
    crystals into a sink drain or tub trap. Copper Sulfate will erode the
    light-weight metal pipes and cause leaks.
