Ok so I get a pest control treatment every 3 months . I live in Florida and it is necessary to keep out the spiders, cockroaches .... Etc. Mostly I just really am afraid of spiders in my house.
So anyway when they did the first treatment i put a tarp over the fish pond. However I didn't consider the rain running off of the roof since the pond is right on the back patio. So far its rained 3 times this week and the fish seem fine. I am not always home when it rains so I cant cover it. We tried to move the pond to the edge of the ratio when I drained all but a few inches of water but my husband and I couldn't budge it. It is aprox 160 gallons
Should I be concerned about the residual from the pest control treatment running off in the rain? The company says once it dries it is waterproof so... Just not sure
