Can pullotion kill green algae?

No, pollution of the water is what causes the green algae. When extra nutrients such as pesticides, runoff, & human/animal waste are added to the water, it in a matter of speaking, makes the algae go nuts. The algae starts to grow in vast, huge amounts. The algae clouds the top of the water, blocking the sunlight that all the plants and animals need. When the algae dies it covers the grass beds and destroys the aquatic plants and animals' habitats. The only real way to stop the algae is to quit polluting the bays. oceans, rivers, etc.
