What does a backswimmer eat?
Backswimmers are carnivorous, eating other insects, tadpoles, small fish and crustaceans. Researchers believe that backswimmers detect their prey by feeling vibrations made in the water by the other creature. Once the prey has been caught by the front legs of the backswimmer, it inserts its beak-like mouth and pumps digestive juices into its victim, dissolving the insides. The backswimmer then sucks out the digested innards.

How do you kill water bugs of the Notonecta Species also called Backswimmer Bugs in a salt water swimming pool?
If you have an above ground pool: 1. dip out as many of the bugs as you can with the net. 2. shock it heavily 3. keep the cover on it when not in use. It is a pain, but it will get rid of the bugs eventually. You want the cover of the pool to lightly cover the layer of water, that way the bugs cannot come up for air. If you have an inground pool, I would not know the exact answer, but maybe that would work getting rid of them too. Clarify it, vacuum it, and run the filter 24/7 if possible, changing the filter at least weekly for cartridge pools. You can buy like 3 of them and just alternate them as needed. My advise is to get a sand filter. I know someone who has one on an Intex blow up above ground pool and it works really well. They always have crystal clear water. Just because you have a saltwater system does not mean you can cut out on ALL of the chemicals, as I misunderstood. You still have to keep your levels straight. The only thing you do not have to have is chlorine, which in itself is a big thing. Test your levels regularly for PH & Free Chorine & Alkalinity.
