Hi, I have been a salt water pool owner for about 11yrs now and this is the first time I have experience a raccoon using my pool as its latrine. My husband was able to remove the fecal matter from the pool but we did not get the fecal matter tested. We did have our pool guy shock the pool and it ran for 48hrs and he change out the filter cartridges. The CDC recommends draining the entire pool but my pool guy said he has never seen anyone do that before and he has been in this business for 25yrs. My main concern is the roundworms these raccoons carry in their fecal matter. I read chlorine doesn't kill those roundworms. I'm scared to get back into my pool now?
Has anyone raccoon fecal matter in their pool? did you drain the water out of your pool to clean it or did you just shock it and change out the filters? Advice please?
Thank You
