When I had woodfrogs I merely rinsed my hands before handling, (usually holding them under the water for a while just to be sure), as I feared some of the soap might stay on my hands and hurt them. I released them when winter started to approach though, so I didn't really get to see the results. (They didn't SEEM to shrivel up and lose oxygen from me just rinsing but I assume the affects would not be so obvious.)
