That said, some high-end fiberglass pools can last more than 50 years if they’re well-maintained.

A well-maintained natural pool has clear water, so you should be able to easily spot a snake before diving in.

The regulations for pool fence heights vary by state, so be sure to research what the legal, minimum height is in your area before purchasing or installing a fence.
