Toad Food Indoors

Question

While repotting a violet from an outdoor pot that has been in the house since fall, my wife was startled by a small toad which had taken up residence in the base of the plant. I’m looking for info on food to keep it comfortable until spring.

Answer 1

It really depends on the type of toad but most toads will eat bugs, fish, and worms. They prefer their food to be alive. Most pet stores or bait shops will sell appropriate food; you just need to make sure it is the right size for the toad.
