Pond cleaning
 

What is the best way to get all the silt out from the bottom of the pond.
I am going to empty it first but I don't have bottom drains and its a pvc
liner I thought of using a kiddies plastic spade and just scrape it up into
a bucket. if anyone has a better idea I would be interested.

I use a wet/dry shop vac.

bit laboroius but I've used a big bath sponge and bucket

but a little mud n stuff at the bottom surely makes a des res for sundry
beetles and other crawling thingies?
