Give them a nice dose of water. Get in the pool, and grap one by the legs, but dont stick your head up so they can see you.
GOggles are reccommended for this operatoin.
Dont kill the ducks though. They're just getting punished for swimming on our property.

go to a bird seed store and buy a few pounds of corn kernels, they love them things. they'll eat aquatic plants too. or just get some duck feed.

take them out of the pool, and go to the pet store get chick starter, and give some of it to them in a bowl and then water in a bowl ad tey should eat it, depending on who big they are you should put them all in a box when it is cold, if you can catch them lol. but dont touch them until you are surethat their mom isnt coming back, use gloves please.If they are smaller hten your hand then out them in a box with like a blanket oin the bottom and put a heat light.. I used to raise orphan ducklings

OK first you shouldnt be feeding the ducks. Even if their mom is gone still.. If their wild dducks then that no times 100! Put them somewhere thats best for them like a lake or a animal shelter or whatever. But if you really want to feed them, some stores have cheap duck food you can buy. Hope I helped :)

I'd actually call animal control. You dont need wild ducklings living in your pool with you feeding them, or they will either grow and be a real hassle or attract predators. Dont take a risk and try to raise them yourself.
