Moles Tearing Up My Yard

RE: Moles Tearing Up My Yard Post By Ann Marie (Guest Post) (06/30/2008) The outdoor cats I feed (they have adopted us) bring us dead baby moles....so perhaps an outdoor pet cat might solve your problem?

So far, I've found a sonic repeller and will look for other methods.

It took about five minutes of running the water when I saw it moving under the grass. I got a shovel and put it in a bucket and relocated it.

The moles eat it and then choke on it. sounds silly but it is supposed to work!

I found one way that works , but it is a little gruesome. first step down the fresh mole tunnels, then come back in about 30 min. stand there quietly, and watch for movement. If you do this in the morning hours it won't take long, 5 or 10 min. tops. Now comes the part you might not like. OK,take the pitchfork in your right hand and jab it in the ground two or three times in rapid strokes.the reason you do that is the tines are far enough apart that it will sometimes miss them on the first jab. I know it sounds awful, but it is far better than the traps or poisons; because your there to dispatch them in a hurry. If you can't do it, pay a young kid $5 a mole. I thought I had 20 or 30 moles in my two and a half acres, but after getting four this way , they were all gone. good luck and happy hunting!!!
