Help help my newts please

Tidying up my garden around this time of year I often find newts
sleeping off their hangovers. ;-)
By the time I discover them I have almost always destroyed their
hibernation habitat. I try moving them to a sheltered part of the
garden and cover them as near as possible to how I found them, but
suspect they do not survive.
Given that I do disturb them and have destroyed their resting place is
there a good way of preserving them please?
I know this doesn't sound constructive but is the tidying absolutely 100%
essential? If you could leave it until April, say, it would help the newts
because you're quite lucky to have them!
