Frogs are cute and useful as many correspondents have stated.
One negative point-I read that goldfish can become engorged with frogspawn
if there is too much in a small area. Since most of the tadpoles are NOT
going to survive it would be sensible to remove some of the spawn from the
pond-put it in a pond as recommneded.At a guess I would leave 80% free area.
As a child I used to like to rear tadpoles in a large washing up bowl-this
would be another useful outlet.

Yesterday I was astonished to find a dozen or two frogs spawning in
our small pond. Hadn't even known we had any!

I'm apprehensive about the impact of these.


Ha! You think that's bad?

You wait until the locusts arrive.....
