The downside is the rotting flesh is getting all over the black balls. Have you ever tried to clean a million little balls?

Not bacteria, the chemical bromate, which is formed when sunlight hits

Science, schmience. They should have used thousands of little rubber duckies to hold the water down. Never pass up a good excuse to have fun!

That would require a drastic change to the rubber ducky theme song! I, for one, would not stand for that.

LOL!! I hadn't thought of the incongruity of walking into a toy store and asking the first salesperson I see: "Pardon me, but do you have big black balls?"

From stevecrm's first link, the manufacturer claims...
Quote:
Reduces sunlight penetration, therefore eliminates duckweed and algae growth
From stevecrm's second link, the manufacturer claims...
Quote:
Reduces penetration of Ultra Violet rays, precluding growth of algae and clogging weeds.
It was the CA water dept's idea that they might prevent Bromate, but the ball maker doesn't make that claim.
