This handcrafted toad house is manufactured from natural wood, with a bark roof. Frogs are effective predators of many f the insects that can potentially damage the garden including snails, slugs, flies, beetles, cockroaches, and mosquitoes. Amphibians are creatures that spend part of their lives in water and the rest on dry land. They do their feeding on land and spend considerable time out of the water... They need to keep moist, so locate your frog chalet in a sheltered location shaded from the heat of the summer sun.
