Warnings as algal Bloom returns to Lough Derg

Warning notices have been erected along the shoreline of Lough Derg, after the return of a toxic algal bloom.

The signs were put up in all amenity areas on the Shannon Largest Lake after the re-appearance of the blue-green algae, which can cause skin rashes in humans and prove fatal to dogs, reports Clare FM news.
