One cool pic!

The NASA frog. For some reason I love this pic. If someone can post the pic that would be cool. Can't do it from my phone and my kid is playing hide and seek with my laptop charger.

Thanks. I have seen my 4 year old do worse things to frogs and toads this year and they lived.

I read that a toad on average will eat 3,000 insects a week. So I took my son out toad hunting 2 nights for a total of 80 adult toads and dropped them in 10 packs around our house. We have the perfect surrounding/enviorment for them to live and breed. As of right now they are still all around the perimeter of the house eating everything in site. Even though my kid harasses the crap out of them (in good nature)

Careful. What if they eat all of the good bugs like spiders. Then you will be short of lthe ones who eat winged insects like Mosquitos.

Toads eat skeeters. So do the dragon flies which are plentiful.

Plus the web making spiders that catch the skeeters are usually webbed in the trees or higher up. I have all grounds covered now
