They really do not want to be in your pool because there is nothing there for them. There is no food and the pool is certainly not the best place to lay eggs. Unfortunately for the both of you, it was driven to land there because its instincts told it that a nice, small, still body of water is the best place to lay eggs. During this time of the year, you can avoid having them land by putting a tarp over your pool. The bugs that are in there now can be scooped out and, if you are sensitive to their plight, relocated to a pond. Be careful handling them, they can inflict a rather nasty bite with their piercing proboscis.
