    • More Info
    • Product Reviews
    Barley straw extract is a liquid concentrate specially formulated to naturally balance pond water and improve clarity.
  • Especially helpful where bottom drains exist
  • Not harmful to aquatic life, plants, humans or pets
  • One bottle is equal to multiple barley straw bales with no messy residual
  • Can be used all year around.

  • What Does Barley Do?
  • We have sold many units of this product in the past few seasons, and have great feed back from many customers that with the proper use of barley can led to much cleaner, clearer water in their ponds.

  • Is Barley A Form Of An Algaecide?
  • No, it is not registered with the US Environmental Protection Agency as a pesticide, and therefore no claims are made regarding it's use in preventing, removing, controlling or eliminating algae. This is an all-natural product, and does not contain any know pesticides, chemical additives, or even "ingredients"- it is just barley straw.

  • How Does Barley Work?
  • The process is not well understood, but it thought that as the straw decays in the presence of oxygen (and possibly sunlight), chemicals are released or produced that help clear water.

    Barley Straw Extract Works Great!, May 12, 2008

    I use barley straw extract in the water features in my garden railroad and in my bird baths. It keeps the water clear and prevents algae from growing on the bird bath bowl.

    I just wanted to let you know what a GREAT! product the Pond Logic Liquid Barley extract is. This is the 2nd year we have used it and we have not been disappointed in the results. This stuff is like magic...we will never use anything else. For about 6 weeks we have had crystal clear water and just use it as maintenance once every 3 weeks.
