Eliminate Tubifex Worm Infestations with Precision

Specialized Biological Solution for Targeted Worm Control in Wastewater Treatment Systems

Take control of Tubifex worm infestations while preserving your system's beneficial biology with ArxZyme™ Tubifex. This specialized bioaugmentation solution delivers precise, targeted treatment for T. tubifex populations that can otherwise devastate biomass and compromise treatment efficiency.

When left unchecked, these small red annelid worms can rapidly multiply in anoxic conditions, consuming vital biomass and triggering system washout that disrupts treatment performance. ArxZyme™ Tubifex provides a strategic intervention that specifically targets these destructive organisms while maintaining the delicate balance of beneficial bacterial populations essential to your treatment process.

Our innovative formulation works in harmony with existing biological processes, offering a sustainable alternative to harsh chemical treatments that can damage overall system health. By selectively eliminating Tubifex worms while preserving beneficial microorganisms, ArxZyme™ Tubifex helps maintain stable operation and consistent treatment performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly will I see results after applying ArxZyme Tubifex?

Initial results are typically observed within 48-72 hours, with complete control achieved within 1-2 weeks of proper application.

Will ArxZyme Tubifex harm beneficial bacteria in my system?

No, our formulation is specifically designed to target Tubifex worms while preserving beneficial biological activity essential for wastewater treatment.

How can I identify a Tubifex worm infestation?

Look for small red worms in sludge samples, particularly in anoxic zones. They are larger than midge fly larvae and tend to form distinctive clusters.

What conditions promote Tubifex worm growth?

Tubifex worms thrive in oxygen-depleted environments with high organic content, particularly in areas with accumulated sludge and anoxic conditions.

Why is it recommended to use ArxZyme AN Protein Catalyst after treatment?

ArxZyme AN Protein Catalyst accelerates the breakdown of protein-rich material released after worm elimination, preventing secondary issues and maintaining system stability.
