Finally discovered what was making ant hill type holes in my thyme plants. Sweat bees! Their heads are metallic green and their bodies are bee-like; yellow with dark stripes. They are good native pollinators so if the honey bees (which is non-native) populations crash, we know we have native bees around to do the job. Also, native are mason bees which are back and look like flies.
