This page is under construction. It is just an outline for now.

Most of the information regarding frog ponds is scattered around my web site. I wanted to bring some of it together here and to clarify how one might set up a pond dedicated to amphibians. Amphibians will visit or live at some "regular ponds" but this page is about ponds just for them to make them the most happy.

These pages on my site may be of some use:
Pond Index
Amphibian Index
Tub Ponds
Organic Ponds

For vernal pool frogs:
For larger frogs:
For toads:
For newts and salamanders:
Slopes and depths and overwintering (link to that section)

Plants around the pond.

Fish
Insects (mosquito control)

Frog Ponds - an Australian site

Frog Decline Reversal Project - another Australian site; this is their page on frog ponds. Note, because they are in Australia, they are talking about tropical ponds, cane toads, etc. that are not relevant to say the Eastern USA.

See the master index for the amphibian pages.
