I have this "crop circle" that popped up in my yard and I don't know what it is. I suspect this is where my septic is...Does anyone know what it could be caused by?

It's perfectly round and perfectly BROWN. The ground is firm where this is...not mushy or anything. Actually, other than being brown, its just like the surrounding area...It happened about 3 weeks ago.

We've only lived there 1.5 years...Didn't have this last year. It was pumped right before we moved in. It's dry underneath...

Have you had a lot of rain lately?????

huh, well aside from the obvious alien visit, did someone dump something out right there, antifreeze, weed killer i say this because somehting along those line happend to us,

This looks exactly like a huge spot I had on my lawn last yr. I have some pretty horrible neighbors on one side of me and I know (because I had it tested) that round-up had been dumped on my yard. They also thrown a variety of junk over the fence, including dirty diapers. That is part of the reason I love staying at my daughters is the fact that I have such ugly neighbors. They are young and I'm certainly not, but they evidently don't like me for some reason....I even paid to put the fence up between my yard and theirs because they didn't want to pay. They have also poisoned and killed 2 cats over the past 5 years (my cats).

Try and think of anyone that might do something cruel like this, and yes it is very cruel, but honestly that is what it looks like.

So what's the verdict? Is it the septic tank? Or, is it still on your DH's To Do List?

Septic would make your yard greener...someone dumped something, a bucket from washing the floor, clorox type stuff. cleaning stuff? just my guess.

When I had septic back-up(without knowing I had septic, therefor Not treating it with bactria) I had a lush green swamp

Thought I had a natural spring...

Dose it stink?

So Sorry about the cats

the grass is now growing back. Wierd eh? I haven't thought about it much with all the excitement of my trip to Mexico....DH and I are having a wedding reception on this Saturday too - so I have mucho on my plate!
