Building a frog pond is a delightful way to invite these charming creatures into your garden. Not only will you provide a haven for froges, but you'll also create a peaceful oasis for yourself and local wildlife.
Select a spot with partial shade to prevent the water from getting too warm. Froges love cool environments!
Your pond can be as small as a few square meters. Remember, the larger the pond, the more diverse wildlife it can support.
Dig a hole with varying depths. Frogs need shallow areas to bask in the sun and deep areas for hiding and breeding.
Use a pond liner to keep the water clean and reduce seepage. Secure the edges with rocks and soil.
Introduce native aquatic plants to help oxygenate the water and provide shelter for tadpoles. Don't forget rocks and logs for froges to perch on.
Fill your pond with rainwater if possible, as it's free from chemicals that might harm froges.
