Go to a nursery and buy an inflatable snake. Throw it in the pool and birds, (rabbits/natural enemies, etc.,) will stay away as long as it isn't in the same spot all the time.

This will scare more than ducks. My mom, as a kid, put something similar in an old lady's bed and the woman almost died from a heart attack.

"You should rent the Sopranos on DVD. Much of the initial series is intertwined with Tony's reaction to the ducks in his pool."
That is exactly what this thread reminded me of.

We live on the lake in Val Vista Lakes and occasionally a pair of ducks will use our pool. We don't mind, it's kind of neat. They don't do any damage at all.

They stay there for awhile and leave. When migration time comes they leave for the season and we're left until next year waiting for the ducks to come back.
