Sump pump/ejector pump run frequently

Recently the sump pump in my home started running about every 5 minutes despite no rain or large amounts of snow. It hasn't snowed in weeks and as a matter of fact the temp has been in the upper 30s and 40s. I shut off the sump pump to see if there was an excessive amount of water but it did not overflow. I left it off for a few hours but then noticed that the ejector pump started to run about every 5 minutes. Once sump pump was turned back on, the ejector pump didn't run as frequently. I've ran the pipe outside at least 20 feet away from the house and sump pump continues to runs every 5 minutes. Any possible solutions?
