Reuse Something Old

Fun Fact: a pair of old tights that haven’t been used in a few years acts as a great catch for debris in your swimming pool.

Rival Nests

This trick may be a way to deter wasps from coming around your swimming pool for a summer or two. The trick is that you are mimicking another wasps nest.

Wasps are very territorial, so be careful when dealing with these little critters.
