Swimming Pool
 

There are pipes above the ground leading to the cholorinator and other things. Anyway, one is leaking a little ... there is an "indentation" a little larger than a bottle cap - bleached white - and I know it's caused by a leak. The spot was dry when I was out there - and I think I saw a drop fall off where two pipes are joined together.

Question: Is there a chance I could wrap tape around it and stop it from getting bigger? Or should I go ahead and call someone to come look at it now before it gets bigger. Have no idea what caused it...I don't use that cholorinator - I use the kind of container that floats in the pool with tablets in it.

I went back and looked again .. and discovered that what I thought was a hole made by dripping water was a hole made by something else. I have moles all over the yard, digging and making "runways". There was the little hole under the pipes and then a about a foot further down there were some other little holes ... no pipe to leak. I am pretty sure that the hole is not caused by a drip. And I sure am relieved to see that. Don't know what I will do about the moles - not much I can do. I live in an area where the weather has been really dry...and the grass is dying. Thanks for trying.

I have 2 outside cats and every morning the are sitting out on our patio
howling until I go out and they show me there moles--then the proceed to
eat them but not before they get me out there. Animals are funny creatures.
