If you have a DE or sand filter with a back wash valve that has the ability to be positioned in the "vac to waste" position you can do that. If not just vac the substance if you can see it. If you can't see it brush the pool two to 3 times per day for a couple of days then back wash the filter. Someone might have a better answer. Call the Dept of Health in you city and ask the question.
