Water bugs mostly eat algae. Water bugs can actually swim upside down and also fly. If your pool has a bit algae on the bottom you might consider buying Water bugs to eat the algae and clean it. I have an in ground pool and all the time over the winter and fall the water bugs just come and stay and eat the algae.

And now just a friendly piece of advice: Be cautious to NOT hold them with bare hands. They will easily jump up fall and get injured or jump up and fly away. Also They have 2 pinchers in the front. I've went through that experience of getting pinched by a water bug and TRUST me its not a good feeling!
