How to prevent algae growth on textured resin outdoor ottomans?
Algae growth on textured resin outdoor ottomans can be unsightly and slippery, but it’s preventable with proper care. Here’s how to keep your ottomans algae-free:
1. Regular Cleaning – Wash your ottomans weekly with mild soap and water to remove dirt and organic matter that algae feed on.
2. Use Algae-Resistant Products – Apply a commercial algae inhibitor or a vinegar-water solution (1:1 ratio) to deter growth.
3. Proper Drainage – Ensure ottomans aren’t sitting in standing water, as moisture encourages algae.
4. Sunlight Exposure – Move ottomans to sunny spots occasionally, as UV light helps prevent algae buildup.
5. Protective Covers – Use waterproof covers when not in use to shield ottomans from rain and humidity.
By following these steps, you can maintain the appearance and safety of your textured resin ottomans all season long!
