The impact upon toads from killing off all of an ecosystem's aphids by pesticide sprays cannot be determined without knowing about the status of other food sources. Pesticide sprays may be broad spectrum or target specific, residually brief or long-lasting and therefore will or will not impact alternative food sources. Adult toads survive as long as ants, beetles, caddisflies, caterpillars, centipedes, earthworms, field crickets, fireflies, fish, flies, isopods, mantids, millipedes, slugs, snails, snakes and Spiders abound while tadpoles survive as long as algae, insect larvae, phytoplankton and zooplankton are available.
