PS - Want to help frogs? Switch to organic and pesticide-free only products and foods. Plant more native plants, leave some areas with leaves and brush for them to hibernate and include a water feature near you. Protect our wetlands. Frogs, dragonflies and bats are some of the best natural pesticide creatures we have!
