Consan 20 Alternatives for Algae Control

Finding Quaternary Ammonium Products

Consan 20 (active ingredient: quaternary ammonium) controls algae, fungus, and bacteria on soil surfaces and in water. If unavailable locally, try:

• Physan 20 from California Carnivores (same active ingredient).
• Online distributors for quaternary ammonium disinfectants.

Important Precautions

• DO NOT use on Drosera or Pinguicula—causes severe leaf damage.
• Safe for Sarracenia, Dionaea, and Nepenthes.
• Always follow manufacturer's dilution and application instructions.

Use as a preventive spray on soil media to suppress algal and fungal spores.
