pool skimmer

Surface debris net

A pool skimmer is a device for removing debris from the surface of a swimming pool.

The term covers both the built-in baskets set into pool walls that catch leaves and insects as water circulates, and the handheld nets on long poles used for manual cleaning: I need to empty the pool skimmer before the filter clogs.
