Frogs are attracted to moist, shady areas with an ample food supply. They thrive in environments with water sources such as ponds, swamps, or waterlogged soil, and they feed on insects that are abundant in gardens and yards.
Great, thanks for your answer. It helps.
Great, thanks, this is helpful.
Actually, I have the same issues too.
So, you are in the right place.
I had a similar issue last summer. I used a barrier to keep the frog out of my garden.
Barriers can be effective but make sure they are tall enough, as frogs can jump quite high!
Good point, SwampyJenkins. I used a mesh fencing that worked wonders and was visually unobtrusive.
Some frogs are protected species. Check your local regulations before attempting to move or get rid of it.
Great advice! It’s important to make sure you’re not violating any laws.
Instead of getting rid of the frog, why not try creating a conducive environment for it to stay away from areas where it’s problematic?
I’ve heard that using natural repellents like coffee grounds can keep frogs at bay. Can anyone confirm?
I’ve tried coffee grounds in my garden to deter slugs, and it seemed to work on frogs too!
Interesting, I’ll give that a try. Thanks for the tip!
I’ve found that frogs are drawn to moisture, so reducing standing water and damp areas in your yard can really help discourage them.
Try trimming back overgrown vegetation and removing any debris where frogs can hide. Less cover means less appeal for them.
A low, fine-mesh fence around your garden can act as a barrier to keep frogs out without harming them.
I’ve had some success by altering the landscape, adding gravel or mulch in areas they frequent seems to make the environment less inviting for frogs.
Consider using a natural repellent like a diluted vinegar spray around the perimeter. It doesn’t harm the frogs but can make your garden less attractive to them.
Improving drainage and fixing any leaks or water accumulation near your home can reduce the water sources that attract frogs.
