If it works why wait , get it out there now . Why wait a few years for more testing .

Re: Trapping toadpoles
I'll be building several for the dam down the back. It looks like a ripper idea... maybe create my own patent on it too ...twin funnels and ziplock bag bait holder on a snapper lead .. LOL
Detoll 50 / 50 in a decent brand super soaker style water pistol is a good way for the kids to get into toad hunting too.
For the bigger kids : Good old .22 hollow pts are good fun also flipping them about a metre into the air.. And sh!tloads cheaper than shotty rounds. We always get a fair few in shoal bay reserve after a sesh at the rockbar or hunting geese n ducks out there.
Get into em any way you can ...they're the rabbits of the north.
