I use a dilute solution of Jeys fluid, brush that in and let it dry, your flagstones stay green/algea free for months.
It is also quite harmful to cats so should keep the fookers from next door leaving me tulipty gifts every other morning.

But, surely, if the Jeys solution is too dilute it could upset the cats stomach and make the problem worse.
That's why you have to ensure you get the concentration "just right"
