I live in North Carolina and recently put up a 15' Intex temporary pool. We get a lot of small flying gnat like bugs that have a small bite - they seem like sand flies or noseeums. There's also bugs crawling around outside of the pool. Any recommendations for getting rid of them.
Getting rid of tiny bugs - noseeums?

For such a tiny thing they sure do pack a punch. So far the only thing that works with them is a good, stiff breeze 
You can set up a fan and turn it on high pointed at the area you want to use outside. Just be safe as far as water and cords.

Ok thanks for the reply. I may go with a fan. I was also wondering if mosquitos dunks would help with noseeums. Not sure if I'd want to put them in the pool but the manufacturer says they're safe for pools
No to the dunks. How they work is to kill the mosquito larva. What you are dealing with (we call them sand nats) come from the sand/dirt. You MIGHT be able to treat the surrounding ground with a insect product but I have not found it to be effective
