Question- If a hügelkultur is assemble adjacent to a house foundation, do you think it would reduce moisture getting into the basement. In my daughters house we've made internal adjustments to reduce excess moisture, but I wonder if this would help too. Then my next question, would it encourage mice and insects to enter the home more than average? The place I was thinking to do it is about 4 feet by 10 feet against her house. I thought to dig down a foot and then raise it 3 feet above ground level, but but it would be more triangular than round since it is against the foundation.
