Is it possible for a Cuban Tree Frog to climb through plumbing to gain entry to my bathroom?

Yes it could have entered through one of your roof vents and swam through the p-trap of your toilet. And they have sticky pads on their toes to climb vertically. If this happens often you can install screens over your roof vents using screen porch material and rubber bands or zip-ties.

This one is absolutely wonderful. Take clear plastic wrap and open the toilet lid stretch it across the toilet and get all the wrinkles out and put the lid down. When your house mate goes to pee they will get a nice warm bath on there backside and that will be followed by a few choice words for you. While they are in the bathroom take more plastic wrap and stretch it across the doorway to the bathroom at face height and tape it up nice and tight. If you talk to your friend while they are in there mention the big A.S.S. spider you just saw run out from under the bathroom door. This sets the subliminal spider message and when they walk out and get a face full of plastic they will only think giant A.S.S. spider and freak like totally out and run over stuff trying to get the plastic off there face.\nGood Luck!!

Ok, look at it like this. What would happen if ever fawcet handle in your house popped off from ever sink and bathtub? \nWater would fill the sinks and bathtubs, then over flow. Before you know it your house is flooded and the structure becomes unstable and eventually breaks down. The water are imigrants. The fawcets and handles are imigration quotas and the house that breaks apart at the foundations would be this country. Ever hear of the saying, "Too much of anything isn't good"?

Only thing you can do to guarantee the removal ... and you arn't going to like this answer ... is to remove ALL the mycelium and spores from the vivarium.  That is nearly impossible, as even if you remove ALL the substratum, it is likely that spores will still be on the snakes, which will then reintroduce the fungus to the vivarium once you put new substrate in it.  \n\nI guess you can start by removing the coconut fibers and putting something else in.  Fungi prefer specific substrates, and this one might just thrive off the coconut fibers.  The problem is that the fungus could be coming WITH your coconut substrate from the manufacturer.  You might want to call them to see if anyone else is having the problem.  \n\nTough problem but good luck!

It shouldn't. You must have a problem with your plumbing.

Tonight, I was out with my 10 yr old and I was spraying some water on our plants. A toad came "running" out of his bush cover to sit in the spray. He was really liking it.  After a couple of minutes laughing at him, a spider crossed the walk about 4 ft away. That toad went on a beeline charge up to the spider. They sat about 4 inches apart - neither one so much as twitching. We froze and watched.  After 2 minutes, the toad pounced in! He tongue-flicked that spider and had a good meal.\nIt was a great moment to share and very educational for him. It cemented some of the things we have spoken about in the past about nature being brutal, but efficient and basically well-planned.\nGo forth and critter. \n\nIf the neighbors think you are "different" - then Thank GOODNESS. Because you are!

So you're not afraid of toilets?  Just public toilets?  And why just public toilets?  Was it that your brother did this to you in/at a public toilet?  I think more info would be needed to accuratly offer advice.  But, for now, perhaps just realizing that you're older now and that the same thing isnt going to happen again is all you need to overcome this.  Because, really, what are the odds you'll fall into a public toilet AND to have your brother repeatedly flush it, yes?

Well never ever seen any till now. well u planning to open marraige bureu for frogs and toads?

Your phobia is rather understandable...that had to be very frightening.  I would start out by recognizing that the frog pit that you fell into had a bunch of frogs that were probably much more fearful than you were.  I can imagine that they were fearful for their lives, thinking that you were there to harm them.\n\nThat being said, obviously you meant them no harm.  But they didn't mean to harm you either.  Their jumping reflex was just a reaction to your falling into their "home". \n\nRealize that frogs have NO WAY of causing us physical pain.  There are frogs that secrete poison from their skins, but they are not used in any type of biology course.  So you can rest assured that they aren't going to bite, pinch, sting, and physically hurt you in any way.\n\nThe slimy feel of a frog is one of their survival needs.  It is imperative for a frog to keep their skin wet.  Without it, their skin can't "breathe".  So yeah, it feels icky...but again, it's just them trying to survive.\n\nMany times a frog with urinate, or pee, when they are scared.  (Like many frightened people.)  It's another fact that you may find disgusting, but it's because they are afraid.  When you think of this, you've got to understand that you are in the dominant role. \n\nOnce you've mentally gone over who's "Alpha" (you) and who's "Omega" (the frog), then you need to slowly work yourself into physical contact.\n\nIntroduction in the same room, where you can easily exit if you're uncomfortable, it key.  See if you can find someone that has a tame frog, otherwise use a frog that has been sedated or held to avoid jumping.\n\nThe goal is to take "baby steps", until you can touch a frog.  The more you do this, the more comfortable you will become with them.  Eventually, it would be good it you can attempt to "catch" one that is jumping around in its aquarium.\n\nSo take your time, don't be upset if it takes MANY occasions to get comfortable with the action.  Your fears are deep seated and over-coming them make take time for you.  It's important to KEEP TRYING, keep working at doing just a little more with a frog each day.\n\nOne day your fears will be conquered, and in the end, your frog will be slain.  (In the name of Science!)  And your feeling of accomplishment will replace the fear that resides in your now.\n\nFootnote:  Don't get a Pac-Man frog.  They do have teeth, and are not friendly at all.  I would suggest getting either a bullfrog (easy to find), or even better, a Green Frog.  They're large like a bullfrog, but they have mellow dispositions and don't startle if touched.\n\nGood luck!  I'm sure you'll do fine.\n\nAngela

Yeah, that guy is right. A snail can't jump. So not ALL animals can jump higher than a house!

A plumbing store might have a water pipe like that.

I doubt that anyone would really be able to answer that unless he or she just so happened to work there.  I suggest calling or e-mailing someone from the aquarium.

Yeah...sure...\nThe horny toads... they are acctrually not toads at all! They are called Horned Lizards, have also been referred to as Horned Toads, Horny Toads, and even Horned Frogs.I 've read books about it . They don't belong to the frog family but they look a lot like toads in appearence.\nHorned Lizards protect themselves in a variety of ways. Their body is flat, so they can sit really still so as to shiled themselves in the rocks with the same color. If this doesnt work, they have also been known to inflate their body and hiss a lot, and in extreme cases, they can even squirt blood from their eyeballs to attack their ememy!\nSounds yucky...But I do take interests in  the litte wired creatrues like taratula,ruby-throad,humming bees ,horny toad...They make our world full of wonder! \nAnd I 'd kiss a really toad rather than the horny toad,if it can turn into a prince ..hehehe...Well I really admire your curiocty and exploring in the animal world...\nHope this will help and good luck!
