Well, my pond is full of these things, and the pond is full of holes, some wholes are as big as your fist! My pond will leak down pretty quickly. I have tried Bentinite(lots of it) and the pond still leaks. I really think if the crawdad or crayfish were not in our pond then the pond it would hold water. And maybe then the bentinite would fix the holes. But these things were still there after we put about 400 lbs of bentinite in the pond, Now the pond is about 1/4 of a acer and so that is not really big-So could someone please help?? Because right now it has some water but as the weather heats up i assume it will go dry. It went dry last year. The only thing the pond is good for at this moment is for the grandbabys to catch lobsters!!! (LOL) So please, does anyone have any idea on what i should do?

For them is there creekriver near by where they repopulated to have crawfish boil or sell em to neighberhood kids as pets sell.
For them to come back to your local conservation office andor natural resource orgs.

The problems it yourself.
The way you said really doubt these crawdads are causing all the way you have guess you guys rented backhoe and then.
Pond was created let it yourself.
Use a drift net and haul them in, then make a big ol’ pot of gumbo.
