The mystery creature is back againCan anyone tell me what is doing this to me lawn please?

Badger or a fox, both shoving their snouts in looking for worms. Are you in an open rural aspect where badgers could be?
if more urban then I'd say fox.

I'm in a small town in Dunstable.I guess either could come from the Downs though. I don't hear any Foxes sounds though. They are becoming more brazen.A friend lives on a small estate jn Stratford upon Avon and has one in her garden at night.

Crikey - that’s some serious earthworm searching going on there! Badger or Fox I’d guess. Do you know anyone with a Trail Camera that could be set up in the garden?

Your lawn looks the same as mine, does this year for the first time , terrible damage. I’m told that the wood we back onto has a badger sett and they come into our garden under any fences that may have a weak area, usually under the fence. I have had it pointed out to me that they look like badgers claws disturbing the earth in order to get through.

@Lemnos Ah so that's the culprit. Can you block where they are getting through. I live in a cul du sac not near any woods. They would have to actually saunter along the street to get access to my front garden Lol.

@muddywaters No I dont know anyone that could set up a trail camera. I'm wondering if the neighbour across the rd has a doorbell camera and could maybe spot it.
