Q.I Think A Skunk Is Digging Up My Lawn. What Can I Do? Looks Like A Cone Shaped Hole.
I feed the birds, so I get a lot of visitors in my yard. Ground hogs, squirrels to name a few. I put down grub killer in the spring. Do I need to do it again in the fall? Thank You.

Birds, squirrels, and voles are common diggers. Larger holes can be caused by armadillos or groundhogs. Late summer to early fall is the best time to treat for grub worms, if necessary. Spring treatment is usually ineffective. These articles should help:
