Ok, I did a little investigating. I've attached the best photo I could get of one of the mounds. I dug off some mounds to see what was within them. They have one or two small holes no bigger than a pencil. (see next post for photo) I don't see how a mole (as small as they are) could fit thru those tiny holes. I do believe it is earthworms. I have seen hundreds of them out there when it rains or is still damp and they are fat. lol. The mounds they create range in size from the diameter of a plum to a grapefruit and are 1-1 1/2 inches high. What in the world can I do about the damage they are causing. I thought worms were good for the soil. Someone please give me a solution.
