Pine woods tree frogs lay eggs in ephemeral water bodies. Eggs generally hatch within 24 hours, and tadpoles metamorphose into baby froglets after 50–75 days at 11–15 mm in length. [ 3 ] Tadpoles are remarkably variable; similar to the squirrel tree frog ( Dryophytes squirellus ), the presence or absence of dragonfly larvae (a predator ...

[241] In Australia, at a cost of more than A$1.5 billion per year, [242] termites cause more damage to houses than fire, floods and storms combined. [243]
