Atlanta Pool Repair Company Pinnacle Pool Services Warns Pool Owners About Ants

Atlanta pool supply company Pinnacle Pool Services warns Atlanta pool owners about the destruction ants can cause to a pool system.

2012-05-17

ATLANTA, GA, May 17, 2012 (Press-News.org) Atlanta pool services company Pinnacle Pool Services wishes to warn pool owners about the destruction ants can wreak on a pool system.

Ants are one of the top pest control issues for Georgia residents in summer. Their presence, however, is not just limited to the yard. In fact, ants adore both the water and the electricity they can find near swimming pools.

Their natural affinity for electricity can lead ants straight to your pool's filter pump. They will often try to build their colony nest in the filter pump, filling the filter with soil and filling the pump motor with dead ants. Infestation can cause your filter and pump to end up either working poorly or stopped completely.

Filters aren't the only thing ants damage, though. Ants will also gladly go after a pool's lining to be able to get at the water inside the lining. This can cause a range of damage from invisible leaks to more obvious ones. Depending on the severity of damage, you may need to replace your entire pool lining thanks to ants.

"Ants are a major problem when it comes to Atlanta swimming pools," notes Greg Stephens, Owner of Pinnacle Pool Services, an Atlanta pool supply and repair provider. "It's important to get rid of ants as soon as possible to avoid having to replace vital components for your pool, which can keep you from being able to enjoy your pool as much as you would like."

Ant damage can require extensive repairs for unaware pool owners. If you suspect that your pool system may have been damaged by ants, it's important to have a reputable Atlanta pool maintenance and repair technician from Pinnacle Pool Services inspect your pool for any needed repairs or replacements.
