He is waving it. Poor old bugger is getting old. I have him here in Fiji and need to find him a girlfriend so i can get a pup out of him Before he carks it.

Some clown imported toads here as well. They get bloody huge compared to the ones I was used to seeing in Queensland. I think it may have something to do with the humidity. I watched a doco on drugs on the ABC years ago and there was this utter down and outer who was extracting the venom by boiling the skin and drinking it. Did a search on it the other day on Erowid. Someone has posted about how he milks his pet buffo, dries the venom and smokes it.

Apparently it gives an astonishing psychadelic high but stinks to high heaven!

I reckon that they will clamber over guarding but it should help. What if you put some short lengths of gutter pipe around the place in the shade as well. You should be able to trap a few like that. And if you put a light in the garden at night they will be drawn to the insects and make them easy to catch If there are any around. Also if you plant heaps of marigolds and lemon grass it keeps insects away depriving them of tucker.
