How To Get Rid Of Tadpoles In A Swimming Pool?

Start by placing a screen over the drain of your swimming pool. This is the first step towards getting these pests from your pool. It may seem difficult but it is more than possible to remove tadpoles from a swimming pool. The screen netting needs to have small enough holes to not let the tadpoles from getting sucked through them. Failure to do this would mean that you will not be able to het rid of the tadpoles through this measure.

The next thing you need to do is drain your swimming pool until there is only around one foot of water left in the pool. You then need to go about filling up a five gallon bucket with the pool water that's left in the pole. You should then net the tadpoles with a pool leaf-skimming net. You need to drag the net behind the tadpoles and then quickly scoop them up on top of it.

Next you are going to need to hold the net over the five gallon bucket that you previously prepared. You just need to dump the tadpoles that you have collected into that bucket, and continue netting the rest of the tadpoles until you can see them no more.

You're nearly done. All you need to do now is drain the pool right to the bottom, getting rid of the foot of water that you left earlier. You now need to refill the pool and keep your water well chlorinated at all times. Tadpoles will not be able to survive in water like this and hence you should ensure that there are plentiful amounts of chlorine at all times in your pool. This keeps your pool clean and safe to swim in throughout the year.

To get rid of them take a net that you normally use to clean out leaf-litter in your pool or a fish tank net. Get a bucket and put some of the pool water in it and then the tadpoles. Take them to the closest freshwater pond and release them. Then you can use chlorine or other chemicals to keep your pool clean. Please don't kill the tadpoles, frog populations are doing bad enough due to fungus, disease, habitat loss, etc.

Isn't that what a pond is for to attract different aquatic life. Scoop them up and put them into a fish tank with some water from the pond and take them to a nearby stream or grade school to teach the kids about the changes a tadpole goes through to become a frog.

Environmentalist advice aside- it's much easier to catch them and dump them in a pond or something than trying to clean them all out. The best way is to used a pump to empty as much of the pool as possible, then use the big pool net - the leaf rake one- to scoop them into a buck - dump in a nearby pond -then just clean the rest of the gunk out of the pool and refill - and bonus - you start off with much cleaner water.

Easy catch them put them in an other pond or keep them

You get a net and catch them but don't kill them

Just use a net that you use for fish in a tank. Or you can go through the whole process of draining the pool. Hope this helps.

Can you transfer them to a wildlife pond?  Frogs are having a hard time these days with pollution and disease which kills a lot of them.

How do I get id of tiny frogs in my swimming pool? I already use chlorine. I want to keep them out

I have tried the scoop method and that's just a pain. I know that they are part of the ecosystem but they turn in to frogs and they are LOUD! Someone told me that there was a household produced ie baking soda????

Don't. Tadpoles are part of our very delicate eco system. Just enjoy them! :0)

Those stupid tadpoles I have some in my pond and all they do is poop.
Yes one or two is ok but hundreds is way too much.
To get rid of them get a net put a leaf that has been in the pond for a wile wait and when there are a good amount scoop them up and throw them out!
Do not be a chicken.

Through a bunch of pine needles into the pool, it should kill the tadpoles. Make sure there are plenty of needles in the pool covering a large portion of the surface of the water.
