CUTRINE-ULTRA contains the same chelated copper formulation as Cutrine Plus with the addition of an emulsified surfactant/penetrant combination. This combination of ingredients makes Cutrine Ultra able to provide highly effective control of coarse (thick cell-walled) filamentous algae, mucilaginous (colonial) planktonic algae, Chara and copper-sensitive vascular aquatic plants.

Effectiveness
CHARA Excellent
FILAMENTOUS ALGAE Excellent
PLANKTONIC ALGAE Excellent

Once contact is established, CUTRINE-ULTRA begins to work immediately to break down the algaes cellular structure and interrupt the ability to photosynthesize food. Controls Planktonic Algae in 24 to 48 hours, Filamentous Algae in 3 to 4 days.

Waters treated with CUTRINE-ULTRA may be used for swimming, fishing, drinking, livestock watering or irrigating turf, ornamental plants or crops immediately after treatment.

Use CUTRINE-ULTRA to easily control surface mat forming algae, submerged filamentous algae, planktonic algae and copper sensitive aquatic plants.

Begin application in spring as water temperature warms to 60º F and above. Early treatment when growth first appears or begins to create a nuisance will reduce the amount of CUTRINE-ULTRA you will need. Early treatment will also reduce the amount of dead growth.

Control will last for several weeks to several months depending on local conditions. Several applications will usually be required to maintain season long control. Retreat as re-growth begins to appear. Allow 1 to 2 weeks between consecutive treatments.

Heavy, out of control growth may require more than one application or physical removal to gain control. For best results, use under conditions of minimal water flow. Apply early on the morning of a calm, sunny day. Contact time should be at least 3 hours.

CUTRINE-ULTRA may be toxic to Trout if carbonate hardness of treated water is less than 50 ppm. Most surface waters exceed this limit and pose no threat. If in doubt, use the Water Hardness Test Strips. Do not use in water containing Koi or hybrid Goldfish.

To apply, determine the volume of water to be treated in acre-feet. Identify the algae or aquatic weed you wish to control. Use 0.6 - 3.0 gallon of CUTRINE-ULTRA per 1.0 acre-feet of water depending on target species. Dilute with a minimum of 9 parts water. Spray uniformly over the water surface with a Tank or Backpack Sprayer. Allow material to rain down in coarse droplets for better surface penetration.

Contact with algae will be improved by breaking apart heavy surface mats before application. Add Bio Boost Enzyme to the Tank Mix to increase the effectivness of the algae treatment. Treat heavy infestations in sections to avoid oxygen depletion.

Water treated with CUTRINE-ULTRA has no use restrictions.

In Wisconsin and other states, chemical use permits are required for all herbicide/algaecide applications or you must have in place a current Type I or Type II fish farm license. Check with your local and/or state regulatory group for specific requirements. In order to apply chemicals in liquid form within Wisconsin, the applicator must be licensed with the State. Wisconsin pond owners - contact the Department of Agriculture at 608-224-4887 for a fish farm license
