Do natural pools attract snakes?

• <div><p>Natural pools don’t necessarily attract snakes, although there is a chance they could stop by for a quick visit. They’re not likely to stay, however, because there’s nothing for snakes to eat in a natural pool environment. A well-maintained natural pool has clear water, so you should be able to easily spot a snake before diving in.</p></div>

Q: How long does rainwater last?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re drinking the water, you can store it indefinitely as long as you properly treat it and your container doesn&rsquo;t break down. Without any treatment system, you should only leave rainwater in a rain barrel for up to four weeks. If you&rsquo;re using the water on your garden or lawn, you can store your water until algae start to grow. </p></div>

Q: How many fish can live in my pond?

• <div><p>How many fish can call your pond home depends on the volume of the pond and the fish size. Your pond's filtration system also influences the number of fish that will thrive in a pond. A general rule of thumb is to have 1 inch of fish for every square foot in a pond that's 2 feet deep. Another rule of thumb you can follow is to have one koi fish for every 200 gallons of water or two goldfish for every 200 gallons. </p></div>

Q: Are outdoor water fountains high maintenance?

• <div><p>Every one to three months, you should perform regular <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/fountain-maintenance-take-care-your-garden-fountain.htm">fountain maintenance</a>, including draining, cleaning, and rinsing the components of your fountain basin and the pump and tubing to prevent algae and other buildup. Fountain maintenance also includes keeping the appropriate water level and removing debris like leaves, insects, and twigs from the water to avoid clogging the pump. You can also hire a professional landscaper to clean your fountain for around <b>$50 to $150 per month</b> on average.</p></div>

Q: Do natural pools attract snakes?

Q: Should a water feature be in the sun or shade?

• <div><p>Placing your water feature in direct sun can speed up evaporation, leading to pump damage and algae growth. Shade or partial shade serves as the ideal location for most water features&mdash;just watch out for tree and plant debris that may fall in and clog the pump. </p></div>
