Cleaning the Garden Pond in Winter

A friend messaged me last week and told me to expect frog spawn very soon. For the past five years, their frogs have been laying eggs in their pond around Valentine’s Day. I look forward to having more frogs in my allotment garden this year but worry that my pond is too dirty. It’s choked up with duckweed and filamentous algae and there’s no space for other living things.

I had to get the pond cleaned before those frogs start spawning — otherwise, it would be too late. This video shows how I cleaned my small garden pond on a cold and wintery day. It includes:

✽ Cleaning the duckweed and filamentous algae from the pond
✽ Emptying the pond water
✽ Finding tadpoles and an adult frog!
✽ Refilling the pond and admiring its clean new look
