small dirt mounds in lawn #854290

Asked October 29, 2023, 12:08 PM EDT

I get these small mounds of dirt in my yard. I am new to the area and haven't come across this before. I need to identify them so I know how to treat them. It wouldn't be so bad if there weren't so many.

Expert Response

Sorry for the slow reply. This is likely from earthworms. This event often happens after a good soaking rain. It is nothing to worry about, they are aerating the soil for you. The mounds can be raked down if you don't like the way they look.

Hope this is helpful.
