Today the house I inspected has obviously had water in the crawl space recently. Didn't appear to be an on going problem. I assumed it was just a wet weather problem, then I found my little green buddy hoping across the plastic. The more I looked the more I am thinking that this is a bigger problem than it appears.
So I will report what I saw and photographed and let the home buyer decide what to do.
But... would you mention the frog?? (Not a toad, but a frog) Frogs can't/don't live in a dry crawlspaces. Seems to indicate that this is not a dry crawlspace to me. Looks like more evidence of moisture to me.

He may only have been passing through. I get a lot of frogs hanging
around inside the garage and concrete floor barn and they are both dry. They wander in and after having dinner they wander out.

If the crawlspace was pretty much enclosed and sealed, I would mention it as an indicator. If the crawl was open and near other water sources (pond, swamp) I would not.
