Natural Muck Reduction for Lakes and Ponds

PLM MD (Muck Digesting) Pellets create an optimal environment for healthy decomposition of organic material. PLM MD Pellets are a combination of natural beneficial bacteria, enzymes, and vitamins that stimulate the biological activity at your lake bottom. This stimulation allows the bacteria to feed on the organic sediment, therefore reducing the muck levels.
Muck builds up when plants don’t fully decompose. That happens when there’s an overload of dead plant material, like leaves falling into the water or excessive algae blooms, or when the environment isn’t suitable for beneficial bacteria. Over the years, PLM has tested many enzyme and bacteria products that produced only marginal results. MD Pellets deliver a clear, measurable difference, and they’ve become a popular addition to lake and pond management programs and an easy-to-use option for the do-it-yourself riparian.

How MD Pellets Work

1. Muck Builds Up

Organic sediment accumulates when dead plant material, like fallen leaves or algae, doesn’t fully break down.

2. Apply the Pellets

Anyone can apply MD Pellets. Spread them once a month while the water temperature is above 55 degrees.

3. Bacteria Get to Work

Natural beneficial bacteria, enzymes, and vitamins stimulate biological activity at the lake or pond bottom.

4. Muck Is Digested

The energized bacteria feed on the organic sediment, reducing muck levels over time.

5. Need a Hand?

Commercial application is available for larger jobs, and MD Pellets can be built into your ongoing lake management program.
