Invite toads to your garden!
Toads eat pesky garden
insects... and they are
fun to watch!
What You Will Need:
Clay Pot (broken clay pots work really well)
Moss or leaves from your garden
A moist area of your garden
What You Do:
Place a clay pot on its side, or upside down, nestled into a shady, moist area of your garden. (Make sure this is an area that will receive water). If you have a broken clay pot, place the larger pieces to form a "roof" and use the ground of your garden as your toad abode floor.
Place soft moss or leaves around, under, and slightly in the pot to create a soft retreat for your garden friends.
Check your toad shelter regularly to see if you have any visitors!
Variations:
Place a terra cotta saucer near your toad shelter for extra water for your toad visitors.
