Moved house and it has very neglected pond which is quite close to the house. I want to clean it and it would mean basically emptying it up but it has these little creatures in which i suspect to be newts or some other kinds of amphibians and I have no idea what do I do with them when I clean. There are quite a few there, I have counted 11 that I could see so there probably more. Any idea what can I do with them? If I start ripping the planta in the pond I suppose they will get out and run, but will they be ok if they do? I don’t have other water bodies close to the house Thanks
Why do you want to clean it? What is the objective? Is it to make it ornamental or for wildlife? If the later I'd consider it job done and walk away. As others have said the newts will be breeding just now. If you have any great crested newts it would be a criminal offence to disturb them. I don't believe the newts shown are but you said there's 11 and there's 3 at most in the pictures so I wouldn't rule it out.
