Bad things are always caused by something I don't like. So I'm betting these are caused by tunafish sandwiches, gangsta-rap, soap operas and Steven Seagal.

Its okra,reality shows, hip-hop music and Diane Sawyer>

Seriously, can anything be done to eradicate this nuisance?

Yup it’s caused by man alright (in this case).

It can be present in warm shallow waters with high nutrients. It is common in lakes and ponds in the south. Here in New England it is rare however in places where lawn fertilizer runs off into a body of water it can raise the nutrient levels high enough to cause blooms in late summer.
