It all started with a good sized frog that we would see in and around our small garden tool shed at the pool. We live just north of Orlando and recently moved. When we moved, the shed went into storage - for 4 1/2 months. When we finally moved the shed from storage, guess who was there, healthy as could be - and with a friend, no less! We had no idea the 'poor things' were in there, much less how they could still be alive in that heat, with no food or water. And boy, can they hide!! Now the 6'h x2'x2' is home to as many as eight Cuban Tree Frogs every day! I think all but one are female, that's how they roll, one guy with his harem! They sleep all day and hunt all night. Our daughter volunteered to annihilate them for us. Those darn frogs have decimated our green anole population. Our backyard has many brown anoles, but only ONE green left. He cocks his head watching me, then goes back to licking the sweet base of the flower buds. All my life living in central Florida I have adored green anoles. Never even knew about or saw a brown one until vacationing near St.Pete Beach as an adult. Now they've moved farther north and browns are everywhere, and greens are scarce. Brown ones are much more aggressive, especially in mating season. I'll try to attach recent pix I took of 2 males fighting to the death. Over a girl. Not a pretty girl. Little eggs they buried are currently hatching and we have tiny brown babies all over the place. How I wish they were green... STOP WISHING - GET RID of the___ FROGS !!!!!!!

We have a large population of tree frogs in our neighborhood. For 9 years I battled them in the tub. Last summer I started plugging the seam gab on both sides with plastic grocery bags. It takes fairly thick bags. You need at least four. Put on either side of the dividing cushion. Stuff up tight. Replace bags with fresh occasionally. Nine times out of ten I have no frogs in tub on opening. Occasionally, if I don't check for the little buggers on closing, I will get one.

They are just there to have their meals. It will be irritating but they don't do any harm to you. I used to do the same, spray chemicals or bug sprays, but one day my daughter thought me something which I forgotten long back. She is studying in Sunnybrook School in Ontario, and they had a class one day about the frogs, tree frogs etc. That day she made me realize that these frogs and toads are important for proper bio balance. Stop hurting them and try simple steps like those mentioned by Walker.

They’re voracious bug eaters! (He kind of looks like a Cuban, so he might eat other frogs, too.)
