Had someone tell me that mustard algae is the worst since it survives in air for up to two weeks, while others only survive a couple of hours or so. Any idea on how long algae spores actually live in air (or on equipment/floats, etc)? Is putting the pool brush or leaf rake in the pool just reintroducing algae all over again?
