What's even more impressive is that after visiting the sauna and curing their chytrid, frogs appear to have resistance to the disease, even in colder conditions. They hop out of the sauna and can survive future infections! pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38926575/

And building the sauna is incredibly easy. All you need is masonry bricks, black paint, greenhouse tarp and zip ties. The inventor published instructions and the whole process takes about an hour sites.google.com/view/anthony...

So treating Chytrid in the wild is surprisingly easy. If you build a sauna, the frogs will seek it out. They sit inside until it gets too hot for them, and then they leave. No other treatments are required

Fortunately, we can do something about it. Chytrid can't survive past 30°C (86°F) but frogs can, and because they're cold-blooded, they'll seek out heat to warm up and leave the heat to cool off

If you're backyard is close to water, consider building a frog sauna to help treat chytrid!
