Since all the rain came through here with the tropical storm we have had some serious tree frogs. These little f*ckers are loud and keep me up at night. I know they are protected but just wanted to find out if anyone knows a way to keep them at bay?

Heh.. I'd like to recommend a short story by Stephen King for ya. "Rainy Season". It's freaky, and about frogs.
Other than that, I got nothing. I've never had to deal with them, thankfully.
thats funny to me. I have tree frogs i love the nosie they make. I pay good money for them.
Lol, I'll read that Rhi and maybe I'll be to afraid to worry about them.
Mandi, come to my place, I have plenty of new friends for you for free even.![]()
LOL.. It definitely will have you too scared to focus on the tree frogs! My Husband read it to me one night with all the lights out. It was the creepiest thing.. LOL





Got a nice stereo? You could put the speakers in the window and blast out "Welcome to the Jungle", that should give them a taste of their own medecine, lol...

Lmao, good one. Then, I would be giving them some good music to f*ck to and waking up the neighbors.
Ear plugs. Don't hurt the little froggies. I wuv them.





Yeah, I was just kidding--besides, they might eat roaches, lol...

How big are the frogs? Frogs are renowned for their bug devastating ways.
I like them, but I'm a vampire so they'd never keep me awake.

You could try trapping them (humanely!) by making traps out of coffee cans. I'm not sure what kind of bait would work.
Now I miss the sound of coqui frogs on Puerto Rico. (BTW coquis have hitched rides to Hawaii & the Southeast...at least they're cute non-native species!) Co-qui! Co-qui!
They are about the size of Palmetto Bugs or huge cockroaches. They stick to the windows and "bark" almost as loud as my dogs. I guess they eat crickets, I don't know. That's not a bad idea though but I would have hundreds of thousands to catch, lol. I could bring them to those of you that love them, hehe.
I love froggies!!! You said they're tree frogs, are they the green with the white stripe down the side kind or the grayish bark colored ones?
They eat a hell of a lot more than just crickets. I can pretty much assure you there is no way in hell you'll get rid of them outside of actually poisoning them en mass which would make me cry so don't do it.For every one you see there are ten you don't.
Anyhow they're good for keeping the bug population down so be happy for them.![]()
I am going to get some earplugs. They are the green ones with the white stripe. It seems as though when it rains they are louder.
I like the sound of froggies too, but I know they can be a pain in the ass when you wanna sleep. Ear plugs, ear plugs, ear plugs!![]()
I believe you Dottie and you have my support
Tree frogs used to scare me from time to time in my old house. They would jump onto the kitchen window late at night and make a loud thump on the glass. I never got used to it.
Hahaha, I actually bought an alarm clock that makes sounds to help you sleep and one of the settings has frogs in it. I love the sound of frogs. You can send them to me!





I love treefrogs, to the point of having a huge tank full of various kinds(not currently, dammit), and a rather large one tattooed on my back. Please, please...don't hurt them. Frog species are disappearing quickly enough as it is. Next time they get loud, imagine really really stoned ducks. That's good for a laugh. Seriously, try it.
waffles are just pancakes with little squares on them.

I owned two White's treefrogs for god knows how long! I loved them!![]()





The green ones are seriously becoming rare. The grey Cubans are taking over big time. There really isnt much you can do about the noise, but trapping them would be a bad idea. I suggest ear plugs... that's about all you can do.
