There seems to be a huge number of molehills about over the last few weeks - is there a reason?
TIA
When it's cold they tend to dig nearer to the surface. It's when they are tunnelling near the surface you get the hills. They go deeper in summer so you see fewer hills. The worms favour wetter soil so are deeper down in summer. TIA
I've waited a decade for someone to ask since learning this during a lock-in.

But wouldn't the ground be harder when its cold??I've waited a decade for someone to ask since learning this during a lock-in.
