Description

The FrogLog is an animal escape ramp for swimming pools that was tested and developed by wildlife biologist, Rich Mason. Rich partnered with Swimline Corp (Parent company of Hydrotools) to manufacture and distribute the product to the pool industry. The FrogLog works for animals up to one pound: Frogs, Toads, Salamanders, Chipmunks, Ducklings, Lizards, Snakes, Small Turtles, Small Rabbits, Squirrels Mice, Bees, Birds, Bats, and more. How does it work? Through hundreds of hours of testing, we determined that most animals will escape from a pool if given a way out after falling in. Many animals panic and swim around the pool edge until bumping into the FrogLog, climbing up and escaping the water. Other animals like squirrels or chipmunks may key in on the FrogLog and swim directly to it. Multiple units should be used in larger pools. Several hundred thousand are in use in 40+ countries. Our simple device has helped countless pool owners solve a pesky problem and helped conserve millions of small animals. The FrogLog is a must have for conservation minded pool owners and those that want to reduce pool maintenance and keep their pool water free of bacteria. The FrogLog is simple to set up and use, and is made of Denier nylon that is safe for pool surfaces. The effectiveness, simplicity and unique nature of the FrogLog has garnered attention from many media outlets. The FrogLog features have appeared on CBS News, The Osgood Files, Innovation Nation, The dodo, Good Housekeeping, and many other media sites.

  • Saves small animals
Color: Blue
Works as it is supposed to!!!! I witnessed it saving a chipmunk this morning. If you love all animals, this is a must if you have a pool.

  • No more dead critters in the pool No more dead critters in the pool
Color: Blue
Saved this little guy :-) Had one of these for a few years. No more dead little critters in the pool, really effective at giving them an escape route. A must have for any pool owner.

  • Doesn’t look like much but fantastic product
Color: Blue
This is the second one I’ve bought. The first one lasted me 4 years before it fell apart. This product doesn’t look like much but it’s totally worth it and it really helps keep the critters out. If I accidentally don’t have it in the pool one night then I’ll find frogs in the water the next day.

  • Seems to be working great!
Color: Blue
So far, no critters in my skimmer! This season I would have expected 2-3 birds, a rabbit, and a few frogs to be floating in my skimmer, but there has been nothing since putting this in my pool. I placed mine a few feet down from the skimmer, and I guess that's working ok even though I technically need two of these for my pool size. But so far, no critters, so I'm happy! That said, this is like the water cooler for wolf spiders, so there are 5-6 huge spiders congregated on this thing at all times, waiting for bugs to get caught in the netting at the bottom for easy dinner. You annoy one of those spiders and about a thousand babies come out of it, so having a nice place for them that's not easy to clean out is a bit annoying. But overall, I'd rather deal with a tiny bit of daily annoyance (hit the thing with my net a few times and scoop up all the bugs) than have to deal with disposing of dead animals. So, overall it's a win. Update 2020: Last season went well too, with nothing but one snake in the skimmer. I noticed when checking everything out prior to this season that the foam platform is a bit worse for wear, but it will probably last one more year. I consider this a good deal. So, 4 seasons of use out of something that sits in water and sunlight for half the year is pretty good. I appreciate no more gross dead critters in my skimmer. ... show more

  • Works and is weather and sun resilient
Color: Blue
Works as it should, but more importantly, it is weather and sun resilient. The first one I bought lasted almost 5 years before I had to replace it. Unfortunately, I bought a cheaper knockoff to replace it that didn't even last a year before it deteriorated in the Arizona sun. I replaced the knockoff with an original Frog Log and expect it to last several years. ... show more

Works really well this is the second one I’ve bought. It also lasts a really long time, despite being in the pool water and in the sun all day long.

  • Way fewer frogs found dead in pool

Significantly reduced the number of frogs in our pool. Wish I bought a two pack…one for the deep and for the shallow end.
