Slippery concrete - any suggestions?

[Ginge Crosby]

Hi all,

my yard has a patch of concrete, near the tap area, which is super slippery all the time, it looks like its an algae-type problem, and just wondering if there's anything chemical or otherwise which might sort it? Water does tend to gather on it, but I use a large window-cleaning squeedgy to scrape the water away at least twice a day. It only seems to affect the humans though, the horses have no trouble with it!
Any suggestions welcomed!

Jeyes fluid or caustic soda should shift it.

fab thanks touchstone, pretty sure i have some jeyes somewhere, will dig it out!

Try jet washing it and then make sure any standing water is swept away...

Get a pressure cleaner on it and spray at close proximity. We have the same problem but a good blast will sort it esp if you scrub it with Jeyes once in a while to keep it off
