Toads

Add toad houses to any garden to attract toads for natural pest control. Ordinary toads become plant protectors just by hopping into the garden. They may not be pretty, but toads eat plenty of bugs, so you'll be glad to see them. 


To encourage toads to come to live in your garden, try the following:

• Put several broken clay pots in the garden for toads to hide under.
• Water when the ground gets dry to keep the environment pleasant for amphibians.
• Avoid spraying toxic chemicals on the garden.
• Watch out for toads when tilling, hoeing, or shoveling.
