With a lawn near the pool made the mistake once of throwing Ironite pellets on the lawn.
Those will leave rust marks in the plaster, so now we use only liquid fertilizers on the lawn.
Turtles, dolphins, starfish and tropical fish mosaics in our pool.

i imagine a sharp pointy thing in a in-ground pool and a above-ground pool to be vastly different potential crisis.
i had a contractor spill a bunch of sheet metal screws on top of my welded seam flat roof and he screamed, "nobody move!". he had a helper bring a bar magnet with wheels to pick up all the fasteners while we stood there like statues.
