Piles of mud on drive

Hi all. I have a block paving driveway and today I noticed there were a few piles of mud had appeared under where DH usually parks his car. We don’t have any grass etc out the front, and so I’m totally baffled as to where this could have come from. I’m praying it isn’t animal poo as that won’t be pleasant to clean up! If it is mud, any ideas how it got there?

Could it have come from the wheels at all?

No I do t think so gobbledygook as it was more like a mound of mud, plus it’s directly in the centre under where his car goes

Do you ? Dh drive through muddy areas , it could be from tire treads or whats gathered on the wheel arch then dried and fallen .
Any change of someone using your drive to turn and it coming of there car / van / tractor

Or it could be animal poo , get you rubber gloves on and go and have a poke !

Photo?! How big is this pile? 😬
Hoping it's not foul for your sake!

Birds digging it out of guttering looking for bugs?

A photo would help.
Mud off someones boots?

Santaisstilleatingmincepies · 12/01/2022 20:05

Ah well then no body.
Because everyone knows killers like a cuppa after burying a body!!

FlutterbyRiaD · 12/01/2022 20:06

I’ll take a photo tomorrow in the light when his car has gone

Sounds like what comes off my wheel arches when I wash the car?

FlutterbyRiaD · 12/01/2022 20:07

Thanks for all the ideas, it puts my mind at ease about cleaning it up now, I’m a clean freak and the thought of scoping up fox poo or something like that makes me shudder

what kind of size?

Santaisstilleatingmincepies · 12/01/2022 20:14

Why would you assume to be cleaning it?
Confused

FlutterbyRiaD · 12/01/2022 20:25

It’s a fair size Scrowy, it looks like a mole mound you would get on grass.

It would be easier for me to clean it Santa, if I left it to DH I’ve would get it all over his hands and clothes, then my settee abd house lol
