All Natural, Beneficial Bacteria Treatment

Safe for recreational ponds, livestock, birds, pets, fish, wildlife, and the environment. Water treated with MuckAway may be used for recreation, swimming, fishing, and other activities immediately after treatment.

Developed from over 20 years of research and comprehensive field studies, MuckAway is The Original Muck Reducer, leading the industry as the most effective solution for muck reduction.

MuckAway tablets are designed to sink below the water's surface, traveling directly to the muck layer, releasing highly concentrated beneficial bacteria that instantly begin consuming settled organic debris, rapidly converting it into an odorless gas that escapes unnoticed from the water column.

MuckAway cleans the water from the bottom up. It focuses on sunken organic debris - also known as pond muck - that has accumulated along the beach, shoreline, or pond bottom.

Muckaway is developed and made in the USA with BioMax technology, a proprietary method used to formulate the safest and most effective natural treatment.

Developed from two decades of research and comprehensive field studies, MuckAway is a natural muck remover that rapidly consumes muck. MuckAway also improves your overall water quality and helps reduce harmful gases, including hydrogen sulfide, that get trapped in the muck causing a rotten egg smell.

MuckAway tablets sink below the water's surface and dissolve, releasing hungry beneficial bacteria that instantly begin consuming and digesting the settled debris, rapidly converting it into an odorless gas that escapes unnoticed out of the water column.

MuckAway precision release tablets are 100% safe and easy to use. You can target treatment around docks, along shorelines, and in beach areas where decaying vegetation, fish waste, or organic debris (pond muck) accumulates. No water uses restrictions.

Have you ever waded into your pond or lake and had your feet instantly sink into slimy, stinky ooze? It can be unsettling. Thankfully, Airmax MuckAway ensures you never have to feel that way again!

As ponds and lakes age, organic debris from fish waste, leaves, twigs, plant decay, and organic runoff accumulates to form thick, foul-smelling pond muck. MuckAway beneficial bacteria eliminates up to 2” of pond muck each month!

How to Apply

Evenly broadcast one scoop of MuckAway for every 1,000 sq ft of treatment area using the included scoop or a spreader. Popular application locations include beach areas, fishing docks, and along shorelines.

When to Apply MuckAway

Apply MuckAway when water temperatures are above 50ºF. Treat monthly for routine, preventative maintenance. For more aggressive treatment and faster results, apply MuckAway every two weeks.

FAQs

Is MuckAway safe to use in a pond used for swimming?

Yes, water treated with MuckAway may be used for swimming, recreation, fishing, and other activities immediately after treatment. MuckAway is all-natural and safe for horses, livestock, birds, pets, fish, wildlife, and the environment.

Does the muck disappear overnight?

No. Keep in mind that it took a long time for pond muck and debris to collect in your pond, so it won't disappear overnight. For example, if your pond has 12 inches of muck accumulation and MuckAway eliminates 2 inches per month, it can take 6 months to achieve your desired result. Patience and consistent treatment will pay off in the long run.

Can I just do one application of MuckAway?

Just like vitamins, consistent use over time will provide the most benefit. Natural decomposition, seasonal changes, and storm runoff will continue to affect your pond. Regular beneficial bacteria treatments using MuckAway should continue, as well. In addition, MuckAway probiotic bacteria is developed for optimal results utilizing the listed dosage rate, and pouring the whole package in at one time will not achieve the results you’re looking for.

Can MuckAway get rid of leeches?

Leeches live in the muck and detritus in shallow areas of your pond or lake. MuckAway is perfect for spot-treating trouble areas and removing organic debris, destroying leeches’ habitat.

Does MuckAway get rid of algae and pond weeds?

No. MuckAway is an all-natural beneficial bacteria treatment designed to reduce pond muck and improve overall water quality. If you're looking to fight algae, consider Airmax Algae Defense. If excessive pond weeds have taken over, consider Airmax WipeOut, EasyKlear, or Ultra PondWeed Defense. If using an algaecide or herbicide, we recommend waiting at least three days before using MuckAway. This ensures that the chemical treatment does not kill the beneficial bacteria in the MuckAway.

Can I use MuckAway in my small fishpond or water garden?

Airmax MuckAway is all natural beneficial bacteria, and it will not harm the aquatic life in a small koi pond, fishpond, or water garden. MuckAway is formulated for large, acreage-sized ponds and lakes, and the dosage rates are listed as such.

Can MuckAway be used with other water treatments?

Yes, we recommend a proactive approach to pond management. Use MuckAway in combination with other Airmax products, including EcoBoost PRx,  PondClear, Pond Dye, and Airmax Aeration to keep your pond looking great. All these products are part of the Airmax Ecosystem, a highly successful approach to Pond and Lake Management.
