I would call a vet and ask that question. It is VERY important that you take care of this problem. I recently learned that raccoon urine has a parasite in it that can be transmitted to humans and other animals. This parasite is so stubborn that simple cleaning products will NOT kill it. If you have little kids that play on your deck or you eat out there you MUST get to this right away. I wish this info was a known fact since I have camped in places all of my life that had raccoons and I don't know why it is not common knowledge. I learned it from a weekly vet item in the newspaper.

∙ 13y agoRecently on Animal Planet I saw a program concerning raccoons. They stated in the program that raccoon feces and urine contain a parasite that can be transmitted to humans. So, if you have feces in your pool you need to take this into account. The program stated that the parasite was a strong one and hard to get rid of. If I had a pool with this problem I think I would drain it, and run the strongest shock treatment and cleaner through it that I could find. I know that to drain a pool and all the work I am suggesting means ( grew up with a pool), but I believe the program and it is important that people who get into your pool can not get the parasite.
