Hello, I am glad I found this site. I have a pool here in Vail AZ. Since we have lived here 2yrs we have had spring tail bugs. Now they dont harm anything and there are SO many of them that come out of the wash behind my house I cannot kill them. However after a trip to the Entomology Department here at Uof A, I have been told that they like still water, normally ponds. Now I have had the chlorine levels up at unsafe levels trying to kill them and they dont get hurt cause they float on the very top of the water. My next step is to try to find a fountain to float in the pool to consistantly move the water without having to have my pumps running. I would LOVE suggestions because all I am finding are ones that take batteries, tiny ones that are solar, which I dont know if they would move enough water to work, or crazy huge ones that cost high hundreds to multi thousands of dollars. I was hoping to find something in the MAX $200 that either is solar or low energy and can be plugged in. Thanks I sure hope I can get answers!!!!
Oh, my other question is how much dammage would I do to my pool if I added dish soap? He said that adding dish soap will run them off, but I have a feeling that is a super bad idea. Thanks
