No, but if they swim in your pool a lot, the duck poop is going to make the water murky.

Ducks and Swimming Pools are not a good combination. Pool sanitisers such as chlorine have no ill affect on the bird. Ducks like the pool environment as it is often a safe haven with clear water and unobtrusive surrounds.

The duck droppings do have a negative effect on the pool water balance and will eventually clog the filter with the creamy white paste.

Ducks can tolerate limited contact with chlorine pools. Since natural habitat is lost in urban areas, ducks have little choice. Set up a chlorine-free wading pool for wild mallards.
