I have a small shed in my back garden that i dont use, theres nothing in there it made out of bricks and has a corregated roof and a wooden door, there is about a ten inch gap under the door, recently over the last six months, i have been noticing that every couple of weeks or so, soil is bought in to the shed also some outside the door , its piled up in to the corner of the shed, and more keeps appearing, its not coming from the roof and the door is padlocked and i am the only one with the key, when i look there is nothing there, i cant really see any droppings either, the thing is i live on a huge hill called Kilvey hill and i know there are badgers, moles and shews and a lot of foxes there and recently i caught a couple of foxes an adult and a cub at seperate occasions ripping open my bin bags, i dont mind what it may be if anything, i am just curious at what it is. So if you could help me that would be great.
Hi Animal_lover, welcome to Wildlife UK!

We had a similar question not too long ago:

Does this look familiar?

Yes it does look fimiliar but not the same its weird, moles arnt really local to the area and do not get spotted. So i dont know
Can you take some photos for us?

Hello animal lover, welcome to the forums!

Some photos would be great, but they can be very difficult to get sometimes. I've sat for many hours with a camera before trying to get a photo of something.
Hello there, welcome to the forums. Icon_smile Sounds similar to the mole case, and they are fairly common in most places so they might be in the local area without you realising.
