Super Bug

I live in Port St. Lucie Florida and I have an in ground pool built just finished about 2 month ago, and of late I notice some crawlers in the pool rim and some on the bottom of the pool crawling. I skim them out and had a look at them. They are about 3/32" wide and about 1/4" long, have about 30 to 40 legs on each side, brown in color with dark horizontal stripes. They do not drown in the water, I sprayed them with insecticide and they survive. I don't know if anyone as ever seen these crawlers or how to get rid of them. If there is anyone with and idea, I am all ears.

Go into Photobucket (your account) and find the photo you want to show, and click it. You will see your photo, and to the left, you will see a box labeled "share this photo" there will be a box in that window with typing in it starting with URL. Click anywhere on the typing and you will notice a little yellow box flash up for a second that says "Copied". Now go to the forum and start a reply. Right click in the reply box and select "paste". Thats it! You can push the preview post button to see if it displays.

Ok! Here it is, the URL. I clicked on it and it took me to the photo.

Sorry, but doesn't look like any bug I've seen.

I know it is weird; my neighbor has a pool also and had never seen anything looking like that when I showed it to him using my net skimmer. However a couple of weeks ago, he came to the fence shouting to me, when I went over to the fence he told me he now have them in his pool. I think they come from the lawn, so I started spraying insecticide I bought costing over $50.00 a pint, and it as slowed them. Now I only see very few of them on the deck or in the pool. Perhaps the spraying is working or because of the days cooling down why I am noticing fewer.
