Drowning and swatting are ways to kill boxelder bugs without harming garden toads. The insects in question (Boisea trivittata) can be removed by gloved hand for drowning in soapy water-filled buckets or swatted by mechanical means. Organic controls such as horticultural oils against eggs and insecticidal soaps against immature and mature stages will kill boxelder bugs, not garden toads, since residue respectively dissipates within one day and on the day of application.

Are frogs underwater creatures?

Frogs are amphibians. That means they can live on land, but they must return to water alot to lay eggs and breathe, whereas toads are land animals, so if you live in a house far from any water bodies or out in the country without ponds the pads/frogs you see in your garden are most likely be toads. So yes, frogs may be underwater creatures but they roam land aswell
