A six inch roll of fine netting, spring coiled, within an all plastic housing, mounts firmly to the underside of a swimming pools' inner lip. A track system runs around the inside of the pool just above water level.

At the push of a button a solar powered, motorized, water proof cart does a complete circuit, dragging the netting with it. A ripple or motion sensor should be incorporated to keep the device from engaging while swimmers are in the pool.

In one go, all of the leaves on the waters surface can be scooped to one side of your swimming pool and disposed of.
