Squirrel drowning in my pool?

Question

I have a squirrel that drowned in my pool and I know the squirrel has been there longer then 12 hours .Do I need to worry about diseases or anything in the pool ?because from the research that I've done I see that some squirrels do carry the plague.

Answer 1

Shoot the squirrel lmao...jk

Answer 2

chlorinate it well and you should be ok

If you have further questions as to the water quality after that then take a sample of the water and have it tested

Answer 3

I laughed so hard when I read this... carry the plague? hahah,

you should be fine, btw... your water is meant to be filtered and toxins are removed through the filter process as well as by chlorine.
