Our Feedback
I have bought many blanket weed contol pond additives in the past and have become increasingly annoyed that none of them work. I used your victoriana product last week and was amazed to see a vast improvement overnight and now, just a few days later, the infestation has been cleared. Brilliant - I can highly reccomend it. Thanks
