We purchased the FrogLogs for our pool after losing several chipmunks, a squirrel, frogs, etc in our pool that couldnāt get back out. The FrogLogs conveniently provide the escape for them to crawl back out. Bugs use it too! It seems like a really great product!
This is my third Frog Log over the years. Keeps toads, frogs, moles and chipmunks safe and out of my filter. Great product!
I was so happy to see zero frogs in my skimmer since Iāve received my frog log! (No bumble bees either)! š
Hello FrogLog Team,
We first bought FogLogs from our local pool service company and they lasted several seasons. Bought new āFog Logsā on-line. These were poor quality and lasted maybe 2 seasons. We are very happy to have your FogLogs in our pool.
They have saved the lives of many chipmunks, squirrels, frogs and toads over the years.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Only gave 3 stars for the replacement bladder. It doesnāt seem as durable as the original as it is already taking on water.
We were sad to find several drowned in the pool this spring. We now have 3 statically placed FrogLogs and have only had one casualty.
It's hard to make a perfect product, but FrogLog is close. I live near agricultural fields. I was getting dead frogs and mice in my skimmer almost daily. After adding them? It's very rare. The only downside is that the FrogLogs tend to collect some floating debris from the pool, which is why I took off one star, but it's worth it to avoid the dead creatures! Insects are able to exit the pool with it as well!
The frog logs seem to be working well for our pool - we use it to save chipmunks who were getting stuck in the water. Now they can swim to one of four frog log platforms and climb out. Our pool service staff highly recommended frog logs and we are so happy they did.
Frogs use our pool as a mating pond. Snakes, skinks, and other crawlies had a history of drowning in the skimmer. After adding two frog logs, i rarely have to due a live rescue or body recovery. Just like with humans, though, there are always a few knuckleheads that can't find their way to safety.
This has changed from the previous version and doesnāt work the same. The fact they are filled with air now is disappointing.
I have not had to remove frogs or chipmunks from our pool in the 3 years I've been using our Frog Log. It is very well built.
This gizmo seems to work like a charm. We routinely have had barely alive (or drowned) frogs, toads, skinks, mice, chipmunks, etc. in our pool in the AM that we had to fish out. Since installing the Frog Log there has not even been one! WOW, it really WORKS.
Great product! I havenāt had any animals or reptiles fall in the pool since Iāve had it, but its insurance for them if they need it.
Frog log is the answer to having animals escape drowning in a swimming pool. Iām tired of emptying the skimmers and finding a dead mouse or mole inside. Frog log gives them a chance to escape.
This is my second set of 4 frog logs and I will never have a pool without them. They really work. We went from regularly pulling dead chipmunks out of the water to none at all. Iāve even watched a mother groundhog help her baby up on to a frog log. Great product.
We love our Frog Logs! Camo is too cute! Gives us peace of mind knowing our chipmunks can get out of the pool if they fall in!
It sets up easily and stays put in the water. But the mesh around the pad folds down, so it may be difficult for an animal to climb out of the water without the help of the mesh.
We purchased 4 Frog Logs to put around our pool and have already noticed a significant reduction in wildlife in the skimmers. In fact, we have yet to see any frogs, lizards or mice etc. Very happy we made the purchase, would totally recommend and wish we had known about this product earlier.
We recently purchased a home with a pool. As first time pool owners we were surprised and saddened by the nearly daily drowned squirrels. Since adding our Frog Logs there have been no drowned wildlife. Our family and backyard friends thank you so much!!!
Great addition, highly recommend putting at least one of these in if not two. No more worries about squirrels falling in by mistake. They swim over to the pad and get out easily. A real life saver. For me , it is also a transition for the little tad poles for when they grow legs and are ready to hop out. Fun to watch them use it!
One of the first things we bought upon moving, well before the pool was anywhere near open. So important for anyone with a pool.
After installing in my pool I still had a dead chipmunk, lots of dead & dying large beetles, several dead frogs and tons of dead oe dying spiders. The frog log only appears to collect tree debris. But I will note it may have had other animals and insects get out between my daily cleaning of the pool.
Hi Nannette, thank you for sharing your experience. We're sorry to hear the FrogLog has not met your expectations. Your feedback is valuable. We want to help you reduce wildlife casualties as much as possible. Here are some thoughts:
1. When you have small mammals (chipmunks, mice, etc.) in your pool, the guidelines on our website suggest increasing the number of FrogLog units to reduce the distance the animals in their state of panic, have to swim to find safety.
2. Our guidelines also suggest that if the number of animals in your pool is significant, then using multiple FrogLogs is advised.
3. Many of the animals that die in pools are young and may not have developed full abilities to swim yet.
4. Frogs and toads can float all day but they will die as chlorine or salt water enters their permeable skin. So survival time does depend on the chlorine/salt levels. Small frogs will not last as long as larger ones.
5. Cycling the pump and filter off at night will reduce the number of animals that get drawn into the skimmer before finding the FrogLog. Also, the FrogLogs can be placed in front of the skimmer.
6. We like saving insects too. If you want to save more insects and spiders, adding multiple FrogLogs will help.
5. Finally- feel free to call if you want to discuss this further. 240-258-7723

Hello. The sand, pebble plastic insert bag needs to be stronger plastic stronger zip lock. The velcro cover needs to be wider to cover the insert bag. The insert steps do not arch like the picture. Air tube velcro needs to be wider to secure air tube.
