A biocide blend can be used in an oil or gas operation. The biocide blend can include a first biocide of a formaldehyde-releasing biocide and a second biocide of a quaternary ammonium compound. The formaldehyde-releasing biocide can release formaldehyde after introduction into a wellbore. The first and second biocide can possess at least one property that is the same. The first biocide and/or the second biocide can maintain biocidal activity for extended periods of time in high salinity wellbore fluids, be thermally stable, and less expensive than other biocides.
