    Just use a net that you use for fish in a tank. Or you can go through the whole process of draining the pool. Hope this helps.

      To get rid of them take a net that you normally use to clean out leaf-litter in your pool or a fish tank net. Get a bucket and put some of the pool water in it and then the tadpoles. Take them to the closest freshwater pond and release them. Then you can use chlorine or other chemicals to keep your pool clean. Please don't kill the tadpoles, frog populations are doing bad enough due to fungus, disease, habitat loss, etc.

        Can you transfer them to a wildlife pond?  Frogs are having a hard time these days with pollution and disease which kills a lot of them.

        Super shock your pool and then vacuum the pool.  Make sure to clean the pool filter as well.  After 3 days, you may have to shock the pool again.

          Through a bunch of pine needles into the pool, it should kill the tadpoles. Make sure there are plenty of needles in the pool covering a large portion of the surface of the water.
