Earthworms?

No...not near a marsh. Someone mentioned moles. Don't know if that would be what the holes are from...or mole crickets.

Not moles, but perhaps mole crickets. I'd still consider earthworms, however.

wow thanks! i just looked at earthworm pics in yard and that's what my yard looks like. should i be concerned? earthworms are usually good for the soil.

if it is bad...how do i get rid of them? yikes!!

The worms are doing what worms do.....churning the soil. There are plenty of situations where they can cause problems and become unwelcome, but the typical property owner usually welcomes them.

The early spring birds will help curtail their numbers. When do the robins come to your area?

I believe they start nesting around March...but not sure. Is there any way to find out for sure if it is worms doing the churning and making holes, or if it is moles are mole crickets?
Thank you so much for all of your help. I really appreciated it! Hopefully...it is worms doing their thing and there will be very fat robins and babies come the summer! LOL!!!

One of my old tricks as a horticultural diagnostician was to take a gallon of warm water into which I squirted some Lemon Joy. Poured slowly over the questionable area, the solution would bring all kinds of things to the surface, especially mole crickets and their nymphs. The hatchlings look like ants swarming out.
