Water is vital to a duck's well-being. In the absence of their preferred natural muddy planted pond, a duck will settle for the next best thing like your swimming pool. I'm sure the chlorine is not pleasant for them, but they need water like we need air. So put up a little pond for them - no need to build something big. We're using a plastic "shell" that is normally used as a kid's sand pit and refresh the water every couple of days.

It can be difficult to get ducks out of your yard once they are in there. If you can bother the mother duck enough that she leaves the yard, she will call the chicks to her and they will follow her out. The only other solution is to trap the ducks and move them. Just be sure to get all of the baby ducks, along with the mother. They cannot survive without her.

Good luck ! I cant keep them off my front porch. We had to put up a baby gate. As for your yard you will have to keep chasing them away but they will come back.

A hunting permit, a duck stamp, and a shotgun will do the trick.

How do you get rid of bird poop from an above-ground pool and what pool chemicals are needed?

The quickest way would be to net out as much of it as you can. In order to sanitize you pool water you will need to shock it with chlorine. However, check your water balance prior to adding chlorine. Birds are attracted to the swimming pool water and it will be difficult to keep them away. If you keep floating toys or objects in your pool when it is not in use consider removing them or keep your pool covered unless you are using it. A Solar cover would help your pool retain heat and keep the bird dropping out of the water!!
