Thank you for the help. They are black, hence toads. Luckily we have an acre of woods behind the house, so we are hoping that's where they will head. Our neighbor is also having the same issue.

My husband plans on netting them out once they get a bit bigger. The good thing out of this is that they ate down the algae that grew over the winter.

Anybody in need of some tadpole Toad eggs, I can ship them UPS.
