Within a few months of putting in a new in-ground pool at our home in Northern NSW we had a lot of wet weather and found to our dismay that our new pool was becoming a death trap for various species of native frogs. Lured to our pool, they were unable to climb out via the overhanging coping and consequently drowned. Noxious and non-native cane toads were also being attracted to it, but (sadly) did not drown and had to be fished out and disposed of. Since installing two frog logs, there have been no more drownings or sightings of frogs (or toads), which we hope means that the frog logs are providing very welcome escape routes for native and exotic amphibians.
I have been using two of The Original Frog Log’s in my pool now for several years. I have an in ground pool in a rural area. There has been a noticeable decrease in in bugs, mice, rats etc getting trapped in the pool. They keep the pool cleaner which equals less maintenance. Will continue to be a customer.
Hi Randy,
Thanks much for the great review and your continued support. We are glad the FrogLog has reduced your maintenance and saved many animals.

Since I started using froglogs I haven’t had any more chipmunks swimming or more likely drowning in my pool!!!
That is great news Jamie! Thanks.
Really well made product. Very pleased with the materials and design. So far, no more critters. Keeping my fingers crossed that this continues. I ordered two of these for our pool and placed them to the side of each skimmer where the incoming water flow is strongest. Maybe I should move them in front of each skimmer? The skimmers are where I find most of the frogs and other beasties. Really excellent thinking behind this product. Thank you!
Love these- I see little critters being helped and saved by this often in our pool. My only complaint is that they do fade and wear out fairly quickly.
Thank you Frog Log! All our "little critters" roaming the night for their meals, now are able to safely escape the dangers of our pool! We'll be sure to buy another one, when this one expires!
Tbe frog log gives these green pool hoppers a chance to log out instead of croaking in the pool filter. Plus, then I don’t have to feel sad or dispose of them!
