They're there anyway, but the light will attract them to the yard (instead of your porch light).

They like it like that. Log pile (for hiding in) Wildlife area (left to nature) So that they ccan hide in it and find plenty of wild food there. Good luck and happy toading! :D Also don't use slug pellets, pesticides, or artificial fertilisers as they can poison toads. Three things:

Keep an area very damp, with log piles and compost heaps. Longer grass is good, Just keep your garden/a part of your garden very soggy and damp :) We get them after heavy rain :D Ponds are great, Or even put in a large sort of plastic box into the ground, fill with water for them to cool down in :)
