First Post here but have had several saltwater pools over the last 10 years and never seen this issue before.
Live in the Dallas area and we have had a very rainy few of months, so last night before bed I throw in a couple of bags of shock before going to bed to take care of some algae I see starting to form.
This morning I go check the pool and find 1000's of some kind of larvae attached to the pool walls just below water line. (see attached pic)
I tested the water and I has plenty of chlorine from the shock but the PH is high (8.0ish) so I use acid around the edges to lower the chlorine and kill the bugs. Was somewhat effective at the 2nd task.
What can i do the kill the rest of them, and where did the come from?
