• <div><p>No, according to the CDC, animals do not usually pose health risks to swimmers, even if one dies.

Q: Are squirrels hard to get rid of?

• <div><p>Like many other rodents, squirrels can be a little difficult to get rid of (especially in the case of an infestation), but the best approach is to make the place as unattractive to squirrels as possible.

Q: How do I keep animals off my pool cover?

• <div><p>Keeping your pool cover clean is a good way to keep smaller animals from running across it or using it as shelter. Small animals may use leaf debris on top of the cover to hide. Cleaning also removes nuts that may fall from a nearby tree that could otherwise be a tempting snack for some animals, like squirrels. </p></div>
