Mum shares genius hack to getting grass and bugs out of your paddling pool without a net or sieve and it takes seconds
THERE is nothing better than the nice cool paddling pool to soak in during the current heatwave.
If you’re lucky enough to have one you can enjoy the heat without getting sunburnt.
But any pool owner will know if you leave your pool left uncovered overnight you’ll find critters have taken a dip the next day.
But one mum has shared her genius hack for cleaning your pool in seconds and you won’t need a net or a sieve.
The savvy mum who goes by @00waureb online shared her hack in a TikTok video online.
She said: “Summer time pool hack. You fed up with netting your pool? The silly little net?”
The mum says all you need is a blanket that you don’t mind getting wet.
She said: “Well, this is the hack for you. You need a blanket.”
You use the blanket as a massive sieve by slowly pulling it sideways around your pool to collect dirt and bugs
She said: “Two people to the bottom of the pool. Pull it all the way along.”
“Alrighty. And make sure to keep the plank at the bottom. Pull it up,” she added.
The mum explained her hack is far easier than trudging around your pool with a net.

The savvy hack racked up over 800,000 views online.
One user said: “Genius.”
“Make sure you don’t wash the blanket with fabric softener,” warned another.
A third viewer said: “I’m definitely trying this, thanks for the hack.”
But some viewers had their own solutions to the problem.
One user said: “I have a pool vacuum from Amazon, I think it cost £21. It’s so easy to use and it’s brilliant, it gets everything off the bottom.”
“Get a sand filter and a skimmer makes life so much easier and a clear pool all summer,” suggested another.
