A wild frog is a beautiful sight. Looking at the amphibian hopping around in your backyard may be fascinating, but when that frog becomes a nuisance, you can get rid of it with the help of some natural repellents. Using natural repellents for frogs will not have any lasting effects on the environment and will effectively keep frogs from entering your property.It is very good to know that frogs can be killed using organic methods. This could be a boon for the environment which is, in most places, over-fertilized. There are many benefits but before I tell you about them, it is worthwhile to understand what frogs are.
Natural Repellent For Frogs
Odor
Frogs can detect smells from a distance and even in the dark. They are attracted to animal waste and decaying plant matter, but they are repelled by many natural substances including citrus oils and pesticides.
You can use this knowledge to make a homemade frog repellent that has been proven to work in scientific studies. This recipe uses apple cider vinegar, which will not harm you or your plants when applied properly:
- Pour one quart of apple cider vinegar into a spray bottle or mister filled with water (50/50). Shake well before using!
Boric acid powder
Boric acid powder can be used as a natural repellent to deter frogs from entering your home. Boric acid is a naturally occurring substance, but it’s also known for its strong smell.
This substance is toxic to humans and animals so it must be handled with care.
Laundry detergent
You can use laundry detergent to repel frogs. We’ve all read or heard that they’re attracted to the smell of laundry detergent, but you’ll have a hard time finding evidence of this. Instead, try placing a bowl of water with some soap in it outside your home overnight and see if the frogs come to investigate. If not, put out an empty bowl as well so you can compare how many frogs visit each one over time.
If nothing else works for you, try using dishwashing liquid instead of laundry detergent–it’s effective at repelling them too!
