Saw first antlion pits of 2021 in soil by garage door. This is Area 1 (A1). Is about 20” deep x 48” long (runs along the driveway, north and south). This space is open to the west, source of most wind and storms) and it has a burning bush shrub. These pits are subject to wind-blown debris: fir needles, maple seeds in spring, and fallen leaves.
There are also two pits in soil around the corner from A1, on the other side of the ground-level horizontal downspout. This is area 2 (A2). The garage wall and an overhead eave shelters this plot of soil from most wind and storms, rain and debris.
