    Any ideas on prevention, some kind of reinforcement under liner.

    Some locals have suggested 2" of crusher dust below sand.

    Hadn't thought of that, but you could probably create an effective barrier. However, I have no idea how deep you'd have to go, OR whether they will tunnel through rock dust.

    You could check with a local exterminator.

    Or, if I were going to try, I think I'd get something like the 6 x 12 patio blocks, and bury those 7" deep in a border around the pool - so the block was under 1" dirt. You'd need to be careful that the blocks touched each other tightly! Again, a local exterminator might have ideas about how best to do that.
