How do I prepare my pond for Winter?

One of the most important things to do when preparing your pond for winter is adding a cold weather bacteria, such as Microbe Lift Autumn Prep.

This combination of enzymes and bacteria are the key to accelerating the breakdown of leaves and organic sediment in ponds.
