Instructions
Find an old clay pot or use an empty coffee can or other container that you no longer need that has an open top.
Locate a spot in your garden or yard that has some shade and, if possible, is moist. Also remember that it should be an area that attracts bugs.
Take a trowel and dig a hole large enough to accommodate your container lying on its side.
Place the container in the hole and bury it in the dirt about halfway, leaving an opening above ground level.
Lay some dead leaves on top of the dirt in the container for bedding.
Put a saucer with water nearby to attract toads.
