Winter's around the corner...

Since I get paranoid too from this topic; I dechlorinate all my tap water, whether it's for my frog or for the feeder insects. Chlorine in your tap water will evaporate after leaving a sponge out soaked with tap water. So it will get rid of that, but there's also ammonia and other chloramines found in tap water. So just to play it safe, dechlorinate haha. By the time the water passed through the crickets and the small traces digested by your frog, it wouldn't be of really any threat to your frog. Enough build up though of these nasties I would assume it could cause some illness... Try out water gel crystals, much better than a sponge.

I second this. I don't want any of these chemicals in anything that may come in contact with my frogs. I use the cricket quencher gel. No chemicals plus you can get it with calcium so you gut load the crickets with calcium while they drink.
