Moles

HA!

 

bout time!

 

"ive got a pool.... and a pond. pond would be good for you."

well as you know, i've become more of a smoker than a drinker, and one big difference between the two is that smokers are a lot less destructive. the vast majority of all home repairs i've been involved in were caused after drinking.

 

but i'm no longer renting a house. i dont want to break my own house. are you willing to put me up while i apprentice you?

 

Mole Maxx. Has some ingredient the moles hate and they move out. Didn't want to poison for fear making the dog and cat sick.

 

Aim this into the mole hole.

 

i'm not worried about breaking hte house killing the moles, just wandering around drunk causing damage. i know how to kill moles, what i dont know how to do is deal with an infestation, which i'm pretty sure this qualifies as

 

i wish i had a prarrie dog problem. a .22 would be a really fun solution to that.

 

in real life and in most movies, i prefer Bill to Chevy, but in caddy shack i honestly couldn't tell you which one i thought was funnier. that movie was a comedic masterpiece

 

i just love how fluid Chevy's character is. each joke just flows into the other and looks so damn effortless. and i may catch shit for this, but i cant stand Rodney. he's like nails on a chalk board for me

 

i felt for sure i was gonna get a negative response before i got a good one

 

Where can one find said item? Between the rodents and Annie, I have holes/trails all over most of my yard... Like ND said, take a step and sink into a tunnel

 

never mind... found the stuff at gardeners.com

 

I found this on OSU estension website... maybe it will help....

Managing Moles
Moles normally cannot be controlled by the use of poisons because their principal diet consists of insects in the soil and earthworms. For this reason, moles seldom take poisonous baits. When the use of poisons seems to be effective, the user has probably either frightened the mole out of his present runway by the scent, or has killed the food upon which the mole feeds.
If moles are deprived of their food supply, they will be forced to seek another area. Several insecticides are capable of reducing populations of earthworms and soil insects to a point where the soil no longer provides sufficient food to fulfill the mole's daily requirements. The effect on the moles cannot be expected for several weeks, and moles can cause increasing damage as they search in a decreasing food supply.
Trapping is the most universally applicable and satisfactory method of mole control, but it is successful only if the habits and instincts of the mole are carefully considered. Two good traps for catching moles in Oklahoma are the scissor and the harpoon.
To trap moles, select a frequently used runway. Place the traps where the ridge tunnels run in a straight line for a few feet. These tunnels are often used as travel ways. Check the traps at least once or twice each day.
To set a harpoon trap, pack down the runway ridge and push the set trap into the ground with trigger snugly on the depressed ridge. As the mole repairs the tunnel, the trap's trigger will be activated.
