This summer, blue-green algae or cyanobacteria blooms are once again invading Alberta lakes. And since they’re known to cause some harmful effects, Alberta Health Services (AHS) has issued an advisory for residents living near the area to take necessary precautions. The agency is warning the public to stay out of the water where the algae are visible. AHS also warned the residents and any visitors of the lake to consider limiting their consumption of fish and fish trimmings from the lake since fish may store toxins in their liver. In addition, the agency cautioned the residents not to feed their pet with the fishes or fish trimmings from the lake.
