Default Algae on polytunnel

The message
from (Nick Maclaren) contains these words:


I have this problem. I tried scrubbing with a broom, but I need to
get a lot of water on and the algae were pretty adhesive. Is there
a way of loosening them without damaging the polythene? I am inclined
to try dilute bleach.



Regards,
Nick Maclaren,


I use washing-up liquid in warmish water and a broom like you. It's
never pristine and I don't get to reach the top but the slightly soapy
water seems to budge most of the algae.
