anyone have any problems with worms makin the soil surface uneven ?

seems thaty every year I have to put the thatch blade on the mower to
smooth out the soil surface because of the worm hole mounds...


Are you sure it's worms??? If you're in a place with significant snow, it
can be caused by frost heaving.

Worms leave dirt from their excavations outside their holes. I
experience them when walking barefoot in the yard. The little dried piles
make indentations in the soles making you wish you had your shoes on.
I tolerate the piles knowing that the worms are aerating for free.
