I keep putting the toads and frogs I find around the yard into the pond stream but they never stay around.

I just leave all the frogs in my pond, not much point in trying to relocate bullfrogs where I live as there will be another to take its place in short order. Besides I look at the bullfrogs as fish population control in my big pond. Now, my smaller terrapin pond has a tighter weave net to keep the bullfrogs out from a few years ago when the turtles where hatchlings. Currently those guys are about 4” across, so don’t need to worry about the bullfrogs chowing on them anymore. Hawks and herons still need to stay away though.

I shoot 25+ bullfrogs every year, this last year was the first with no big bullfrogs. So I think I'm getting somewhere.
