Thanks. No problem. We thought we were being real careful, but we're
gonna be waaay more careful from now on. Very scarey.

Oh jeez. Okay. We're gonna be very very very careful about that.

Scarey.

Thanks for the info.

You say the exterminator used a "pyrethrin-based spray" ....
Pyrethrin is deadly toxic to fish - also "as far as we could tell" ... these
sentences point to the culprit pyrethrin.
A tiny breeze could blow some
of the stuff into your pond.

Good Luck in getting it cleaned out of your pond surrounds.
