Skunk or raccoon damage? The hole shape tells you who dug up your lawn overnight
Your lawn might look damaged overnight. Small holes or torn sod suggest wildlife. Skunks dig tiny cone-shaped holes for bugs. Raccoons tear up larger turf sections. Experts say hole patterns reveal the culprit. Check for grubs, but the damage pattern is key. Cone-shaped holes mean skunks. Rolled turf indicates raccoons.
