Tree frogs in the toilet

We have a toilet in the workshop/garage. In spite of checking it every day or two and removing two or three green tree frogs and taking the for a walk down the driveway to a ditch with water, they keep coming back. Or more arrive. Plumber says that putting one of those blue-loo blocks in the cistern or putting vinegar in the toilet bowl should deter them but it doesn’t and now I’m worried that they’ve swam through blue/vinegary toxic water.

Plumber says it’s really common and he has to remove them from the pipes into the cistern Ours are coming up through the toilet… I suspect their coming in through the air flow pipe.

Anyone else have this problem?!

Not in the toilet (just huntsmen so far) but we do get them around the door frames and some make their way inside and have been found amongst the shoe rack.

We used to get them on the windows at night, but since they've discovered the toilet we rarely see them elsewhere.

Yep to the huntsmen. Have had a couple of beauties! Fortunately nothing more sinister than that!
