Default Something nasty in the swimming pool ...

I've just started to get my swimming pool ready after the winter. I
was hooking out a load of leaves then spotted a pair of dead rats!

Any suggestions on the ppm level of Cl I need to make it sake?


Having asked a Microbiologist friend of mine, his answer was that HE would
never swim in the pool until it has been drained, cleaned and refilled.

Rats carry diseases harmful to man - dead rats rotting in water will
encourage may more bacterial growths harmful to man.

Hope this is of some help.
