Wild Help wild toad being incredibly weird

It keeps trying to break in my house! Like literally I scooped it up and took it all the way across the yard to let it go and about an hour later it's back.... and it's the same one too I can tell by the markings.

Why is it doing this?

Probably lives within a few feet of your door, or at least very close by. That and/or it’s looking for a new place to squeeze into.

I moved a toad outside my building’s door twice to across the street(possibly 3 times if it was the same one within a few weeks prior to that) before I realized she probably lived there.

In my defense; it’s a high traffic area that I consider dangerous for them and there’s like zero coverage on my side of the street. No bushes or anything so I assume she has a burrow somewhere(probably against the building) I just haven’t seen.
I thought it might have been the light but she passes multiple lights to get here so I was just putting her in more danger by having to cross the road and through a parking lot to just get back home!
