Pool Life

Every single pool I have done, the ducks have shown up within a month. How do they know that the water is now clean for them?

I was also recently showing a client all the small aquatic organisms in her pool and she was so excited.  I have to laugh because I’m very good at wearing out the knees on my work pants getting down and looking at stuff and she was right there, looking too.  There were damselfly larvae, tadpoles, cyprids, midge larva, and a host of others. She sent me and some of her friends an email later on the day. And I am going to include a excerpt.

I really do get a kick out of providing a product that people get “stoked” about :-)

And that the little California native aquatic animals can get “stoked” about too. :-)
