I have experienced similar. Is it appropriate to flush the dunny when there are tree frogs present?

How does this fit into a modern PC world where you don't want to harm anything for fear of beig outed on instagram?

You'd even contemplate flushing them!?

It was a genuine concern of mine. We were on a family trip north of Broome and when you find a toilet that you need to use, and its full of frogs.... just what do you do? I think the little buggers are clever enough to find their way into the bowl, so I figure they are probably clever enough to find their way out of the septic.

Had tree frogs living in the outdoor funny, under the verandah and in most of the drains in Mackay, only place I never saw them was in a tree.
best thing to do is flush before you sit, gives them a bit of a heads up.

That is absolutely true!
I have on my farm outback there plenty
Beautifull green frogs not only in bowl but also inside flushing cistern!
Then in 5000liters rain water tank I need to make my tea and coffee.
Luckily they don't squize ght shower head.
The most surprising is finding plenty of those greeny glummy creatures in my Gold Coast garage next day after every trip to farm 300 km.
How they managed to stick to the vehicle?
What happen next? They jump walk to my big dam/pond. Pond is full of wild ducks and huge toadsfew eels.
