Max, the (only) good news is perhaps that the frogs don't mind. It looks like the infestation is on private leased land. best to map using the Fieldmap/Collector app and get in contact with the ACT Biosecurity team.
The photos seem to indicate that the infestation is on the declared grassy woodland ecological community.
