Yup, they even go in swimming pools. We find a few every week and were oh so lucky to have eggs in our pool (I cant find any reference to how toads lay their eggs so I am assuming it was the bufo not another frog or toad species. How nice of them.
The eggs look like a black string but if you try to grab the string it breaks up into millions of pieces. Maybe it's only hundreds of thousands but seems like millions.
