8 things you can do at home or school to help frogs!

1. Use natural compost in the garden and avoid chemical fertilizers, herbicides and insecticides, because these can be deadly to frogs and tadpoles.

2. Plant native grasses and shrubs to provide shade and hiding places in your garden. Find out how to create your own frog friendly garden

3. Find out more about frogs that may be living in your area and listen to their calls at the Frogs Australia Network website

4. Be a responsible pet owner by keeping your pets from harassing native wildlife. If you have a cat keep it indoors at night.

5. Reduce energy consumption and use renewable sources where possible. This will help to slow the rate of climate change, which is affecting frog populations.

6. Install a rainwater tank and reduce your water use at home.

7. Sign the Amphibian Ark online petition

8. Put the fun in fundraising at school! Visit the Go Natural website to purchase chocolate frogs to sell for frog conservation.
