Frogs everywhere

I would be slightly exaggerating to say that the outside walls of my house (wood siding) are covered with frogs, but just slightly.
They are everywhere, jumping on us when we walk out the door, in every nook and cranny, and just a pain in the butt.
Any tricks y’all know of to discourage them getting on the house?
TIA

Lights attract bugs. Bugs attract frogs. Turn off your lights. Unless it's also happening in the daytime. Then spray for bugs.

I’m having the same problem. They’re everywhere !! It might have something to do with the fact that my house is lit up like a Vegas hotel at night.

I enjoy it.
Eats the bugs and entertains my boys. I’ve got them over the place but don’t pay them much attention.
Learn to live with it instead of trying to nuke your yard. Are a couple of frogs really that bad?

I’ve got three on my bedroom window right now. I silently cheer them every time I see them eat a bug.

Frogs good, too many bad, is it a new problem or old?
You got much plant growth around the house? Maybe cutting back some might help. I've got a couple green tree frogs that live off the moths on my kitchen window. Like he said it's the light that draws these two.
eta: Have you checked near ground for leaking plumbing? Once found a hidden leak this way.

Only real problem with those little green tree frogs is the turds they drop.
Had that problem around the front porch till I cut those lights off at night. All good now and I don't have to spray for bugs around the house.

No. A couple thousand is bad.

This.
For the first month of warm weather this year I was panicking a little because I thought I had a huge mouse problem. Until I saw one stuck to a window then realized it was the frogs.
At least I know if I ever get ducks like I have been planning for a while that they will have a huge protein source
