The hidden challenge of worm castings on croquet lawns, plus two more from Wynnum

For croquet players, however, the story is a little different! The tiny mounds can deflect the path of a ball, slow it down unexpectedly, and leave muddy deposits stuck to balls, shoes and even mallets. Precision shots can become a game of chance when worm castings decide to join the action.

Worm castings a sign of healthy lawns at Wynnum

After weeks of wet weather, our lawns have become home to hundreds of worm castings. While they may not look particularly attractive, these little mounds are actually a sign of a healthy, living lawn.

Earthworms help improve soil structure, drainage and nutrient cycling, so the grounds are certainly benefiting from their hard work.
