immature coqui with a dime


Here are 2 immature coqui's I caught tonight within a foot of each other,they would be the calling males in 6-7 months that annoy you. Most likely from the same batch of eggs they're pictured in a plastic mayonaise jar with a dime between them to show their size. These small ones and the females are what you really need to control as they move silently into your area unlike the male. So when you hear males in the distance think about slowly walking the areas you've already treated to check for any immatures like these and stray females, the better the flashlight the greater the chance of spotting them. I don't use a M*glight as they're bulbs aren't bright/white enough, the newer style 3-4 watt double/triple A battery models are worth the $30-$40 price tag.
