Frog & Toad Houses and Pond Shelters

Why support frogs and toads in your garden?

Frogs and toads are vital parts of a healthy garden ecosystem. They help keep slug and insect populations under control, making them a natural form of pest control. However, habitat loss, pollution, and garden obstacles like steep pond edges or drains can make survival challenging for amphibians. That’s why adding a frog house or amphibian ladder can make a big difference.

Where to place a frog or toad house

Frog and toad shelters should be placed in a cool, shaded, and damp area — ideally near a pond or water source. Tuck them among plants, rocks, or logs to mimic natural hiding places. For added protection, choose a WoodStone or ceramic frog shelter that offers insulation during winter hibernation.

What is an amphibian ladder?

An amphibian ladder helps frogs and toads escape from man-made water features, garden drains, or steep-sided ponds. These specially designed ramps provide a safe way for amphibians to move between water and land, reducing the risk of drowning or entrapment.
