At this time of year, probably worm casts. No cure as you need the worms for soil aeration etc. Remedy is to wait until they are dry then brush them over the surface.

Sounds like worm casts. They do no harm. I just stand on them to flatten them down

Oops Owdboggy, must have put my comment on at the same time as you!!

At least we agree!

Lol!!

Thanks much appreciated

Depends how big the mounds are ... could be moles? Plenty about in the midlands in this mild weather.

I was wondering about that, too. How big are these piles of earth, Reetgirl? If they are bigger than your hand, then it could be moles.

If its worms that's good news if its moles it isn't.

The mounds of soil are quite small

Its good News then i shouldn't worry .

Thank you

your welcome x .
