    Just a quick suggestion, if you leave the skimmer 'ungizzmoed' take the hose off of the bottom - an open hose is an open invitation to mice, chipmonks etc, some of their nesting material could block the hose and result in water in the skimmer, which could freeze and burst the skimmer. (it happens)

    Having done construction and service for 4 pool companies in 4 states starting in 1988, what I know about pools could fill a couple of books - what I don't know could fill libraries

    We put all the hoses in the basement with the pump. A rodent would have to jump 4 feet to block the skimmer opening.

    I say if he makes the jump, he should get to stay.
