Why do insects breed in swimming pools?

What should I do if there are insects in the swimming pool? Some say that insects grow in the swimming pool because of inadequate initial disinfection. While adding a large amount of disinfectant might be suggested, it may not kill all insects, as many disinfectants do not have insecticidal properties and only inhibit the growth of insects.
With the arrival of spring, various insects enter their peak growing season. Insufficient chlorine levels, high water turbidity, and the accumulation of hair, dander, saliva, lipstick, hair oil, grease, and urea brought into the pool by bathers provide ample nutrients for insects, and the suitable temperature promotes their growth, resulting in the appearance of insects in the swimming pool. How can I kill the insects in the swimming pool? Cationic bactericides are an insecticide for swimming pool insects.
When the pool is open, many people often enter the water at the same time. ， This can cause a rapid decrease in the disinfection efficiency of the disinfectant. This situation is called a sudden surge load. In the event of a sudden surge load or the presence of multiple viruses, the bactericidal CT value of normal free chlorine will rapidly decrease, making it impossible to quickly restore the bactericidal conditions of the pool water, leading to a bactericidal blind spot. At this time, spores, water insects, and other organisms will take advantage of the situation and reproduce in the water.
Spores and water insects are adult organisms, and chlorine disinfectants are bactericides, not insecticides, and cannot kill these organisms. Therefore, we can only create an uncomfortable environment for these organisms to inhibit their reproduction or starve them to death. Chlorine-free disinfectants are cationic bactericides that are safe for humans. They use emulsification to break the surface tension, causing water insects and other organisms to drown. Cationic bactericides can achieve a kill rate of over 95% within 12 hours.
