Florida’s Sunshine State is known for its beautiful beaches, diverse wildlife, and… cane toads? These large, bumpy amphibians are not native to Florida and have become a major invasive species.
Cane toads (also known as bufo toads or marine toads) are stocky amphibians with dry, warty skin. They can grow up to 9 inches long and are typically brown, tan, or reddish-brown with dark spots.
Introduced in the 1930s to control sugar cane pests, cane toads have established themselves throughout central and southern Florida.
Cane toads pose several threats to Florida’s ecosystem:
They eat a variety of native animals, including insects, lizards, and even small snakes.
Their bumpy skin contains toxins that can be poisonous to pets and wildlife who try to eat them.
They compete with native frogs and toads for food and resources.
Unfortunately, there’s no easy solution to eliminating cane toads entirely. However, there are steps you can take to minimize their presence and protect your property:
Remove potential hiding spots like piles of leaves, debris, and overgrown vegetation.
Seal cracks and gaps around your home’s foundation and doors to prevent entry.
