    Algae growing in glass block shower wall seam--HELP!
    We recently remodeled our up stairs bath room. We installed a glass block shower where the tub used to be.
    Unfortuneately there is a thin "skin" of green algae growing between the lower blocks along the grouted seams; seems like it was invaded through the loose grout application,according to the contractor




    Any clues to removing/ neutralizing this invasive species?

    Really don't want to disassemble this wall...

    Any help would be much appreciated!
