    Caught this fellow before he met the lawnmower and set him back to where I found him afterwards. Wonder what I can do to encourage them in the garden

    Put in a garden pond. Doesn't have to be big. A pond 2m x 1m x 0.5m depth will attract breeding frogs. Use only native plants and don't put in fish.

    Plenty of cover like bogs, wildflower meadow and native hedgerow will help greatly. If you put in a pond now by next spring you will have frogs spawning in them:)

    Here's some photos of a wildlife garden which will attract frogs and with luck newts as well.

    You could fence it off. It would be safe for everybody.
