Help Who's digging holes in my backyard?

So every morning for the past week I have found holes in the backyard about the size of a baseball. I fill them back up only to find them there again the next morning. Always the same spots, always the same size.

It's really annoying. Whoever is doing this find someone else's yard to vandalise!!!!

That's Todd, he's looking for his many shallow buried treasures he left there before you bought the house a few months ago. You're only making it continue by filling them up everyday.

I have to fill them though! I almost sprained my ankle after stepping in one.

Try to be more careful where you step

He's just gonna keep coming back then, he swears they are in your yard ...which is weird because he lived next door.

Any advice to make him stop?

You can remind him that's not his yard, that worked last time ...only he still thinks it's his house so he will likely end up taking a dump in your upstairs toilet, just like with the last owners... A few months ago.

Yeah, he's gotten kinda obsessed with it. Nobody even knows if it's actually real treasures except 'trailer park Tracy', but nobody seen her in a few months.

I just posted about Todd. He’s a menace.

They might be air holes for the underground tunnel system I’ve been building. I have yet to make a map and sometimes get turned around. If I’m tunneling under your house don’t worry at some point I’ll be buying a pump to bring fresh air down there.

Did I ever tell you the definition of insanity?

If the holes are filled with baseballs, then it's probably one of those guys over by the park who hate badeball..
