    I have no idea how they are getting into the house. :-? They come at night when everything is quiet and Ian is in bed. :eek: I'm always alone when I hear the split-splat of them moving over my laminated floors - getting nearer and nearer to where I am sitting. :smt010 Some are tiny - some much bigger and they are wet and greenish brown with sticky tongues and big eyes. I think they are invading my garden and I just know there are more to come!!! [​IMG] I'm sure I've seen them leap out of the pond and into the concealing plants around its edges. [​IMG]
