Holes in my yard #419420

Asked August 05, 2017, 2:19 PM EDT

I've attached two photos of holes in my yard. There are about 8-10 of these holes in different spots of the yard. Can you identify what's causing/creating them? Thank you! (I'm in Brooklyn Park.)

Expert Response

Holes are always difficult to diagnose as there are so many possibilities. It could be squirrels putting their food stash away. They dig a lot of different holes in various locations. It also could be stripped gopher or chipmunk. Here's a link: http://www.extension.umn.edu/garden/diagnose/plant/turf/holes.html
