Reasons to get rid of those frogs
Hawaii already has a small lizard called the gecko occupying that niche. Geckos are really pleasant to have around, and their call is a quiet "chik, chik, chik". Hearing that means another annoying insect has become lunch.
A tiny frog that carries a Sonalert would be very unpopular in the Islands. The history of Hawaii is full of examples where imported fauna drive out the existing ones, and usually icky things drive out neat things, so that's why the eradication will be popular.
