What is this ????

[HeyHey44]

New to the Pool game ... We left on Vacation for a couple weeks and come back to these things in our pool ? I can't find anything on google images that resemble it besides a rat tail maggot and it doesn't really look like it ...

Is it an actual creature? Looks like a wad of packing tape to me.

I googled "what is that thing in heyhey44's pool" and google said it was either an alien or the lochness monster!

Really? That is a live animal? How weird!

 

[HeyHey44]

does it really look like a living (was) thing as opposed to trash. Yuck you go vacation and alien spawn in your pool?

[HeyHey44]

That is insane! Gets me every time.

I'm going nuts over here! Do you touch it yet? Does it feel like it was ever living? How long is it? If only 1/2 to 2", it could be a hydra. It looks bigger though. Did you ever see any of them alive and moving?

I'm guessing that it's not organic. Maybe a neighbor built something and the trash got caught in the wind.

Remnant from last night's fireworks?

 

[HeyHey44]

They were found prior to the fireworks and they were all sizes but mostly 1 inch - 2 inches my wife made me throw the whole net and everything away lol I'm thinking I need to retrieve it and contact someone to identify what exactly it is ! I felt like stuff was crawling all over me last night after seeing them !

Check with your local extension office and speak to the Agriculture and Natural resources agent or call Department of Natural resources.
