To kill mustard algae in your pool, start by shocking the water with a chlorine shock treatment to raise the chlorine levels significantly. After ensuring the pH is balanced, scrub the affected surfaces with a pool brush to dislodge the algae. Run the pool filter continuously for 24-48 hours to help remove dead algae, and consider using an algaecide specifically designed for mustard algae for added effectiveness. Regularly check and maintain proper pool chemistry to prevent its return.

How do you know if mustard algae is in your pool?

You can identify mustard algae in your pool by observing its yellowish-brown color, which often appears as a slimy layer on pool surfaces, particularly in shaded areas. It may also cling to pool walls, ladders, and steps. Additionally, mustard algae tends to resist normal chlorination, so if your pool water remains cloudy or has a persistent yellow tint despite proper chemical balancing, it could indicate an infestation. Regular testing and visual inspection are key to confirming its presence.
