I was just reading that article CJ. I have to say, I have not seen or heard any of them while I was there! Most likly a good thing!!!!

I think we freak out to much about our eco systems - probably in a year the things will all be gone - Phoenix has a toad/frog infestation about every ten years. I think it is just nature's way of bringing a balance. One year of overload - fix a few things- and then clea up the instigator - I trust nature.

Kimmee, I trust nature too until I get a cricket in the house. Then cj is madder than a wet hen and out comes the spray can. Thats the only time I use anything from a spray can.

I know that the noise these frogs are creating would probably sound nice for about a couple hours and then......well who knows what I'd do.

LOL, don't come here to Possum Point then cause we have more frogs than you can shake a stick at. Every size, shape and color you can think of! Bullfrogs the size of dinner plates! And come spring time, they all get to croaking so loud you can hardly sleep at night, but you get used to it after awhile. They help keep the skeeter population down, so we don't have a problem with the noise.
