Answer 1

Sounds like mosquito larva. Dump the water. Give him fresh water. In fact, look around and dump all standing water every few days to keep them from maturing into disease carrying mosquitoes.

Answer 2

Brooding the Alein again.......it could be just a Mosquitoe Larvae. They wiggle in the ater and if that is what you got. Dump it out and put freash water in there and a Gold Fish. The Gold Fish eat mosquiotes.

Answer 3

prolly some kind of larva, more than likely mosquito. Time to change the water :)

Answer 4

If they are really tiny, they could be mosquito larvae.
Dump the pool at least once a week and refill it, and if you can, keep it covered when its not being used.

Answer 5

those are baby mosquitoes , u need to empty the pool and let the sun dry it out and that should kill them, dont let the dogs play in it , the mosquitos could cause diseases.

Answer 6
