Heads up guys, for-about-it. A few years back, pre frog, pre-building boom, pre-speculation deforestation we'd sit at dusk in the middle of the road, in the middle of HPP. NO frogs in the middle of the park yet.
We placed bets on which would make it to the water from the highway first, The frogs or the D-9s. The D-9's kept going the frogs slowed down at the tree line.
Get used to them everyone, you will not eradicate them. You may control them around your house. BEST method? snatch, grab and pop. Then step on their head. Seen many hop off after letting the air out when you thought you squished em. ha ha
They started the grant program, took them months to get that "organized". When you get the funds from the county, equiptment from the state and or the feds, well lets just say organized it wasn't.
I drug that 2" x 200 ft hose through the jungle, in the rain afetr dark by myself. I got suckered into donating some labor to the goverment, I did. But you live and learn.
The frogs are in the ground, in the tubes, in the africian snail empty shells, under piles of wood, your trash can and will be in you shower and eventually you'll see one little bugga hoppin across your livingroom floor. But hey! They're slower than a centipede and don't sting when you squish em. They can't swim long so I feed em to my fish.
I just close my windows at night and if there is a peticularly loud one outside my bedroom window I take the little bite lite and go put the little guy to sleep so I can sleep. He no peep I sleep. 8)
Oh, and they got to my street by the idiot's brother who lives in the Matson container, when he was away in jail for a couple years. His brother brought junk cars down from 39th and Pohaku loaded with frogs, that was it!
End of story.
