You might use an ultra sound devise to flush them out while you are working.
They will probably  come back when you finish.  I use ultrasound to flush
squirrels and other critters from attics, then seal up the holes. The frogs
will eat all sorts of insects. So they are very beneficial

Hi All, 

 

I just bought this cute little 1951 bungalow, 1 level, 2 bedrooms and 767
square feet. It's basically a rectangle over a crawlspace. 

And, I'll spare the swearing and just sum up by saying that I've got to
entirely redo the insulation under the house, (and the vapor barrier).

 

But, there are some very cute little native frogs that are happily
over-wintering under my house, and I love them.

Do you smart and kindly people have any advice for insulating the floor
without disturbing the welcoming habitat for my happy frogs?

 

Cheers,

Erin Rasmussen
