In most levels of Drilling Billy are secret locations that release a number of items or, in one case, activate a secret door when Billy digs there. These spots are indistinguishable from the surrounding ground; however, in easy mode, they are pointed out by a red arrow when a monster falls through two (three in normal mode) or more holes.
