Help! Frog and toad issue in pool.

6 years ago

Hello! We installed an inground pool this year and were late getting it opened because almost every day was rainy and the concrete hadn't been poured yet. We finally took off the cover when the concrete had been scheduled so that they could pour around the pool. Anyways, when we took off the cover there were so many frogs and toads. EVERYWHERE. I have been scooping them out every day, but they just keep coming back. When the concrete had finally been poured, only the occasional frog/toad would show up, but I just found eggs everywhere. The pool won't be opened until Monday so it currently looks like a green swamp with leaves everywhere. What I'm wondering is: How do I get the eggs out before the pool company comes and cleans the pool? How will I know if I have gotten them all? I am also concerned that some of the eggs have hatched and there are tadpoles swimming below the green surface of our pool. We have a saltwater pool so we can't raise the chlorine and kill them. I just have no clue what to do and this whole post is all over the place. Thanks.
