    Default Holes in the Ground

    Any one have any idea what has caused these holes in the ground, they keep appearing, if I fill them in they come back, I want to poor some petrol down the holes but Mrs Phil won't let me.

    Hi Phil.

    I had similar holes in the ground at a house i lived in in Queensland many years ago. they were caused by burrowing ground spiders. That may or may not be what is happening in your case. Hope that helps

    Hi Phil

    Have you had any big moths banging on the windows? We get them periodically, seem to emerge from holes like those, ~1cm diameter, sometimes with a yellow pupal case around 5cm long. Heaps in the lawn and paddocks. If this is the case, ain't no-one home by the time you find them, so petrol won't do too much.
    Cheers
    Si
