Hi everyone! I am new to this group! I have a 15x33 metal frame summer waves above ground pool... It is blue with white poles. And the inside liner is all blue. I bought sand from a sand n gravel company and leveled the ground. Filled the pool and that evening went to take the hose out when I noticed MILLIONS of tiny bugs all over my frame and some dead in the water. After googling I have learned they are Thrips. They flock to water,and like bright colors,white,blue,yellow,orange,ect But I can't seem to get rid of them...
I have tried
* seven dust around the pool
*vinegar/water solutions sprayed the entire frame and ground
*blue dawn/water solution sprayed the entire frame and ground
*sprayed Raid on the entire frame and ground

PLEASE HELP! THEY WONT GO AWAY!
Pictures are of them as I see them, then zoomed in as far as my camera would go. Then took that pic and zoomed in more with fingers, then googled the picture. And that's a pic of the same pool I have.
