Swimming during summer is a fun activity for everyone, but you should always check out the water before taking a plunge. The swimming pool carries a host of waterborne bacteria, germs, and illnesses. Although most of these hazardous substances will be killed by chlorine, bacteria – like E. coli – are very difficult to eliminate.
The bacterium Escherichia coli (a.k.a. E. coli) is a major cause of foodborne illnesses. This bacteria is found in the intestines of both animals and humans, and it can easily contaminate and spread in water. Although you can’t see, smell, or taste this bacteria, it’s responsible for causing 93,094 cases of infection and 3,268 hospitalizations in the U.S. annually.
Individuals who have been infected by E. coli will start showing the following symptoms after one day or a week:
If someone were to accidentally defecate in the pool, everyone should get out of the water. The swimming pool must be immediately closed so you can take the necessary steps to disinfect and clean the pool water.
To prevent E. coli from contaminating your swimming pool there are several things you can do to reduce the chances of contracting this bacteria. Some of these things include:
