I have a bunch of sandbags left over from the flood (they didn't help). Finally getting around to fix up my yard now that my house work is slowing down. The trash claws took my debris as well as big chunks of sod/dirt. Is it a good idea to use the sand from the sandbags to fill in the holes? The sand is mostly dirt anyways... I feel like this has probably been asked already. Couldn't find anything in a search except for bad memories from the flood.

I used the sand from my son's old basketball goal bottom. It was the play sand they sell at Lowes. It was just for some small areas here and there, but worked fine. This was late July last year and you can't tell where the sand was put down.

It worked for me
