Moles

[sandy10]

I have 19 mole hills in my front garden...it is now getting so frustrating. I rang someone yesterday told it would be £75 per mole caught. This is atrocious money, and even if he did not catch any moles in his traps I would be charged, asked how much & he said depends, depends on what??, he couldn't answer. Anyone got any ideas ( no wise cracks please) on how to get rid. I have done the usual filling the holes with water etc etc.

That's hellishly big moles. Prairie Dogs or Ground Squirrels? Technique looks a winner though.

When I lived abroad, I used to have an obligation under the lease to water the garden for so many hours a week. When I saw mole-hills, I just put the hose down a different mole-hole each time for at least an hour. That put them off for weeks. Where I live now, however, I never have had moles, and never will. MY garden is solid rock.

Hope our moleman doesn't read this, £75 per mole is outrageous!
