It surely is as long as they come from a pesticide free place. In fact the ones I sell on my web site come from traps that are on private land that has a lot of woods and there is no chance that there are any pesticides. I have been feeding my frogs and many others w/ these very bugs w/ no harmful effects. In fact your frogs will love them and you for getting them. Good Luck
Invest in a net, too. My frogs all like a treat of "meadow plankton." The pastures grass around my house and pastures have a lot of small leaf hoppers that get them very excited and provide the challenge of a chase, along with small gnats and other critters. It's easy to let the larger or stinging insects go, as they will be the first to fly out of the net.
