Garden Pests and Diseases: What insect creates these nests?, 0 by tomcran

I just discovered a hole with a diameter of about an inch, beside one of these - any such holes are apparently generally obstructed by the dirt and grass, so I hadn't seen one before. The hole is visible in the top left. It goes down a few inches then curves sideward. So its looking like this is apparently the result of something digging. I've seen lots of large beetles walking around there... maybe it's them? (By the way, I can see how one would think it is fire ants but I have dug into these mounds, found none, and have seen no fire ants around the property at all. So, given the hole, it looks like something else).
