If your porch zapper goes out, the frogs won't be there to save you from the
mosquitoes.

Separately for sure. This combination will release chlorine gas I
believe, which is just as toxic to humans as the frogs.

Ecologists claim that amphibians are barometers of the health of the
ecology in general because of their sensitivity to environmental chemical
pollution. I'd bet that a frog's LD50 is quite a bit lower than a human's.
But your point is, I think, that after all the LD50 BS is over, g, both
species are just as dead.
BTW, the chlorine gas trick is very effective in groundhog holes, too.
It got rid of the one under my mom's elevated shed near a field of soybeans.

Get rid of the neighbors, don't blame the frogs for doing their job.
The unused pool is probly a bug/mosquito habitat, so the frogs are
trying to help.

Good luck,

That`s right, the frogs are doing YOU a favor.
Why don`t you be a man and tell you neighbor to
stop being a scum and clean up the pool? sissy.

That's a health hazard...call the health department. They'll make him
either clean it up or drain it.
