Thanks for sharing this story and highlighting one of the many problems here in Hawaii that many Oahu politicians fail to take seriously or fund until it starts becoming a problem on Oahu.
I have heard recently but can't remember the source that Coqui frogs may also be vectors of Rat Lungworm Disease. I know that some of our local politicians were strongly supporting funding for research, development, and education about this life changing disease, but then Oaho politicians managed to divert the funding and give it to the Department of Health who made a short TV ad or 2 about washing produce, but no research or any real education from what I have seen and heard.
