Me and my son keep this one area that has puddles filled during the summer for all the tadpoles. There's always thousands of little ones born there each year, it's a wonderful experience to share with my son. We also make hide outs for toads to go when it's hot. We dry stack rocks for rock gardens and intentionally leave gaps and things for them. I hope this helps there population in our area at least. I'll post pics when they start laying. We also make habitats for other creatures in our yard. We enjoy Gods creations and try to show it as we can.
