They were walking down the drive way when I last saw them.

But seriously traps work the best. Moles eat earthworms and insects, so poisions are not very effective agianst them. The sound vibrating gizmos are not worth a dime. I would go with a good spike trap. The shotgun sounds fun! But seriously traps work the best. Moles eat earthworms and insects, so poisions are not very effective agianst them.

As we all know they are little devils & they love the worms thats in your garden. So one way is to get rid of their food source, you can buy a proprietary wormkiller, or another way is you can use chemicals to put down their runs and around the boundaries of your garden . Which is based on aluminium ammonium sulphate you will find this in your garden centre, or another way to discouragrage them is to push old rags covered in creosote or bury bottles upright,as far as their necks where moles are active . They dislike both the smell and the hum of the wind in the bottles. There is 2 other ways you can buy one of the proprietary smoke generators or mole traps. Hope this little information has been of help to you Well here are a few ways you can try . As we all know they are little devils & they love the worms thats in your garden.

This is TRUE. or you can by a Mole trap at your local feed supply store. seriously this will work…. set three or four empty mason jars with no lids on them in your yard something about the noise when the wind blows over them scares the moles off.

Temporarily displaced moles that survive a flood will return home when the ground begins to dry and re-inhabit their vacated encampments. Flooding mole tunnels in a dry soil using hundreds of gallons of water may drown the mole or may force it to the surface where it can be killed. Attempting to drown moles in a sand to loam soil is usually futile. There are few obstacles they cannot negotiate. They can swim across rivers and canals, and burrow beneath highways and buildings. Home remedies such as placing hair, broken glass, mothballs, motor oil, etc. in tunnels and liming the soil are rarely effective although such actions may repel the moles for a short time. Chewing gum, Alka-Seltzer, etc. are not effective. Some cats provide good mole control. Occasionally a cat learns to catch them as they push excavated earth out onto the surface of the ground. In most cases, the small gray animals that cats catch are shrews and since shrews are predatory on moles, such cats are actually contributing to the mole problem. Dogs can be taught to dig up moles without digging up the entire lawn, but it is difficult. -- Trilochan Kaur Moles will leave the security of their tunnels during floods and swim to higher ground to avoid drowning.

It works quite well.... actually they sell at home depot these little tubes that you light (its like a firework) and its shoots out smoke into their hole…it is a poisiness gas to them and will kill them.

Also, this doesn't kill them so they're won't be a funky smell in your yard from dead moles. Of course, there is the funky mothball smell but it's not that bad.
