Propane Cannons! that actually work well in large areas and are used at lots airports

You could let them enjoy themselves, and you might enjoy them besides!
...Or, you could get a pool cover!

If you're not on the best of terms with your neighbor you could leave a discrete trail of bread crumbs over to their pool

I wouldn't bother with a decoy pool. Remember the failed attempt to transplant the goonie birds in the Pacific.

Pellet gun, sharp knife and a 375 degree oven will fix them. Decoys rarely ever work, scare them away and they will come back. A predator will keep them away (cat, dog) or you just live with it. I have a pair that visit my pool in the spring every year. They don’t hand around long so it does not bother me but six will make a mess, and fast.

shoot, shovel and shut up. BTW I know grape kool aid works on geese it might work on ducks.

I still like the bread crumb trail to the neighbors pool. the beauty is that all evidence of the dirty deed is gone when the ducks arrive there, ...and they won't be able to find their way back!


(I think owning a propane cannon would be really cool)
