And will those toads eat all the mosquito larvae in those shallow dishes? Big Grin

And apropos of nothing, except that it was one of my dad's favorite quotations and mention of toads brings it to mind:
"Sweet are the uses of adversity,
Which, like the toad, ugly and venomous,
Wears yet a precious jewel in his head;
And this our life, exempt from public haunt,
Finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks,
Sermons in stones, and good in every thing"
Confidence is that feeling you have right before you do something really stupid.
