I'd have thought that too, but she didn't say when she last saw one, and I moved in right as they'd have been going into hibernation. From what she's said the last tenants here kind of trashed the garden and maybe that scared them off, or maybe they just hate me. Could be all kinds of reasons I haven't seen any. Hopefully I can make the place a bit friendlier to them and they can come back and get on with feasting on the bodies of my enemies.
Your pet toads will be nocturnal, spending the day tucked up under stones or rubble, as will any slow worms (also in your compost heap). Toads only really bother with water in the breeding season, so you're a little late with the sink, they might appreciate it next year!
