  • One inch diameter holes

    definitely no mole-hills but holes in some cases about10 ins. apart with connecting channel near to the surface

        A hole of 1" in diameter is most likely to be mice, but do not rule out rats or voles - the latter esp if near water of any kind - pond, ditch, boggy area. See holes this size all the time at work and we find all three beasties as above

          Very small dogs? Or gigantic earthworms! Sorry couldn't resist.

          Yep, reckon they are mouse holes, not to be confused with moose holes which are considerably larger!

          You can take the girl out of East Anglia but you can't take the East Anglian out of the girl. I can't afford the operation so my feet will always be webbed!
