I am planning two lawn articles for Homes & Gardens Online. One is on mole hills on lawns, and the other is worm casts on lawns.
I want to get tips and advice from lawn and turf experts on the topics, and have included some questions below:
How problematic are mole hills on lawns, and what damage do moles do to lawns?
How should you repair mole hills to get a neat lawn again?
Can the mole hill soil be beneficial to a lawn?
How can you deter moles from a lawn?
Are worm casts a major problem on a lawn, or just a minor nuisance?
What is the best course of action to deal with worm casts?
What advice would you give anyone who gets worm casts on their lawn?

I am planning an article for Homes & Gardens on invasive shrubs to avoid planting in the US, and would love to hear from US-based gardeners and designers on the shrubs they would never advise planting, and why?
Plus, I’d love to get recommendations for native alternatives to plant instead.
I am putting together an article on plants that can cause severe damage to homes. Such as ones with deep roots that can damage foundations, climbers with spreading roots that can damage walls and masonry, and trees with extensive roots that can affect buildings and drains.
I am seeking experienced gardeners to reveal their picks for the worst plants that damage homes, and why. Plus any recommendations for alternatives that won’t cause so much damage.
