White vinegar in pond?

[Dpunm]

My pond is below my deck and I need to find a cleaner that I can use where the run off will not hurt my Koi. I read that white vinegar with water 50/50 is a good cleaner. I don't expect much to go into the pond but some may go into should I be concerned ??

vinegar can be used to kill plants and it is acidic so I think it could mess up your ph and kill of plants. Can you put plastic over your pond while you clean your deck?

to clean you can use the peroxide and water also .I use it on my gutters near the pond to keep them white

A bottle of vinegar in a 1000 gallons would be a trivial change in ph.

Might scorch plant surfaces, where it lands and dries
