While watering my potted hibiscus plant this morning I noticed a green frog on one of the branches. The tree is on my patio and since frogs eat mosquitoes I am reluctant to chase it away. Is this frog poisonous? I tried searching on Google but can't look at the pictures. I don't like frogs. HELP!
Look carefully. The frog is in the center of the picture. Did not want to get any closer.
This view is from the back.

No he is just a little tree frog! No worries only if you were in Africa or some exotic place LOL You are lucky to have them!

Thanks everyone. I guess I'll have to make him comfortable. He hasn't moved all day. Just hope he eats the aphids that's on the hibiscus buds. That's his dinner. Thanks again.

These are wonderful little frogs! Florida's population is being seriously depleted by the larger Cuban treefrogs, so enjoy your little green buddy.

Cute little harmless frog, just wants to hang out and eat bugs and be left alone.

I just wouldn't recommend eating him. Seriously, they can be toxic to dogs.
