Killing Black Brush Algae

We've all got it. Can't stand it. Have tried using SAE's only to find the adults won't go near it. We even know that double strength Flourish Excel is supposed to kill it but we worry about exceeding the recommended dose and the price.

Well here's a tip-

I've found that if you use Flourish excel and use a syringe to squirt it directly at the algae when you dose your tank (rather than just tipping it in) the algae goes red in about a couple of days and dies just after a week.
