The invention discloses a garlic straw-nanocopper composite blue alga treatment agent. The blue alga treatment agent is prepared from, by weight, 40-60 parts of diatomite, 5-10 parts of plant ash, 5-10 parts of garlic straws, 3-5 parts of nanocopper, 0.2-0.4 parts of acrylamide, 3-5 parts of sodium gluconate, 0.3-0.5 parts of polyethyleneimine, 0.03-0.05 parts of ammonium persulfate, 1-2 parts of alum, 0.5-1 part of hydroxyethylurea, and 10-15 parts of a composite assistant. The blue alga treatment agent has the advantages of good adsorption activity and flocculation performance, very good flocculation effect on blue algae, fast blue alga removal rate, low cost, no secondary pollution, high cyanotoxin adsorption and removal efficiency, good removal effect on various organic and inorganic pollution substances in water, bacterium killing and alga inhibiting efficacy, effective improvement of the quality of water, lasting effectiveness, and suitableness for treatment of complex water environment.
