September 15 - 20: This is the very early stage of our fall foliage season. To find color, we suggest you travel to northern Maine - Aroostook County, Aroostook State Park, Allagash Wilderness Waterway, Fort Kent, Presque Isle, Ashland, Mars Hill. Peak color typically occurs in these locations the last week in September.
Algae in Birdbath Rinse it every other day or put in a circulating pump. The pump will only reduce, not rid, the bath of algae. More tips from FAQ Farmers: 1  I rinse my bird bath at least four times a week.  Scrub the bird bath with a stiff bristle brush, change the water, and repeat as necessary.
Clean the surface of your pond with a skimmer or algae net. 12. Vacuum the algae from the pond with a pond vacuum. 13. Place barley straw in a location that provides a good flow of water and sunlight. The barley straw will decompose adding hydrogen peroxide to the water, killing the algae.
