Pond Mysteries: No Frogs in 2022

Gabriel Oct 01, 2026

GreenThumb - A single bucket buried in the ground becomes a functioning ecosystem within weeks. No fish stocking. No pumps. No filters. No maintenance. 🪣 This is what shows up — on its own — without any human intervention: - DRAGONFLIES (within days) Adults patrol above the water, hunting mosquitoes on the wing. Their underwater larvae spend 1-2 YEARS hunting before emerging — the most efficient pest control nature ever invented. 🐸 NATIVE TREE FROGS (within weeks) - Green tree frogs in the Southeast - Gray tree frogs across the East and Midwest - Pacific tree frogs in the West They find standing water reliably, return each season, and feed heavily on garden insects every night. - GROUND-FEEDING BIRDS American robins and other ground-feeders use pond water at SOIL LEVEL in ways

Having frogs in the garden is definitely a laudable goal - frogs will help reduce insect populations and make you sing their songs. The best way to share your garden with frogs is to simply build a frog-friendly pond. Restoring their natural habitat is the best way to attract frogs (toads are good too) and keep them from migrating in search of more frog-friendly environments. #enjoythepets

Attracting frogs to your backyard pond will help to control insects in your yard. Frogs can eat up to 100 insects a day, so they’re excellent natural pest killers. Having frogs in your pond is also a great learning experience for kids as they get to watch the tiny tadpoles turn into adult frogs. Here are 10 ways to attract frogs to your garden pond.

I’ve been to so many gardens that don’t have ponds but are filled with frogs. Their secret? Water bowls dotted all around the place!

First up, get a pot without holes. This might sound obvious but lots of people fall in love with regular (holey) pots and then try to seal the holes - a sure recipe for leaks and frustration! @pots_wa have a range of gorgeous clay water bowls (the one I’m planting in the video is called Atlantis), as well as lightweight bowls you can use if you’d prefer something that is easier to shift. Next, choose the right location. Avoid afternoon sun which can make your pots overheat & burn your water plants. Morning sun is ideal! Speaking of water plants, if you want to attract local frogs (like motorbike frogs, slender tree frogs, western banjo frogs and more), you need local native plants. Inside your pond (in the water) try the native water lily (ottelia ovalifolia), and the tassel sedge (carex fascicularis).  Next, provide shelter - logs, leaf litter and rocks can be placed around your water bowl, to mimic a natural environment and give frogs a hiding place. Try to have some plants or logs overhanging some of the bowl as well. To avoid mosquito problems while still encouraging frogs, add naive fish that are frog-friendly. Try western Pygmy Perch or Swan River Gobys.  Also, although you probably want to show off your water bowl, avoid putting it in a busy spot - pick a secluded area where you won’t scare your frogs away. Then watch and wait! Check out the water bowl range from @pots_wa online, or at one of their stores in Cottesloe, Cockburn, Wanneroo and Golden Bay ❤️🐸 | Learn to Garden | Casey Joy | Facebook
