Hello!

I’m in South Texas. Last year I installed a drip irrigation setup I bought from Lowe's. I created a service strip separate the watering area away from my foundation.

I originally had landscaping weed barrier fabric and mulch right up to the foundation of the house and was watering my plants with a soaker hose. I pulled all that up and this is what we have now.

—-My question is: Do these photos show signs of damage to my foundation caused by my irrigation set up?

Bonus: what can I use to fill in this hole a critter has dug? Can I fill it using my clay dirt?

Thanks!

This beauty is emerald green color and was very shy. I believe she is a Opheodrys aestivus; which would make sense given the insane amount of brown widows I see beneath my furniture at night. Also, all the boxelder nymphs I planned to spray (with soap and water) are GONE . It’s 4:13 PM and 98°F outside.

She is a CUTIE !!
