Some of the various sources of bacteria and microbes in your pool can include:
  • People swimming in the pool - this is the main source of bacteria.
  • Animals, such as dogs - some pets like to paddle in the pool on hot days.
  • Dead wildlife - for example, frogs or lizards or insects may occasionally drown in your pool.
  • Debris from around the property, such as leaves, grass and dust.
