What is happening to my bay leaf tree and what are making little hills in my lawn?

looks like something has curled the leaves over with web and maybe laid eggs inside then turned the edge red! What is it and what should I do?
The other question I have little 1/4 cm holes in my lawn with a little mud like mound
around it. Is this ants or something else.
My poor lawn really does need to be dug up but we don't have the time, money,skill or energy. It is covered in moss has green patches with dried up dead grass between it. I think something is eating the roots of the grass maybe crane fly. But I really don't know how to improve it without digging it all up! Help!
