Earthworms

Earthworms

Symptoms

Sticky piles of soil appear on the surface of the lawn.

Cause

Earthworms.

Harm

Worms are brilliant at improving the condition of the soil by pulling down and incorporating organic matter. The tunnels that they make as they wend their way around, provide perfect aeration and drainage tunnels. The annoying bit is the casts that they make which are both unsightly and can be quite slippery. They are particularly annoying if run over by a lawnmower because they smear and become indelibly ingrained in the grass.
