MOLES

MOLES
Posted by COOKIE from KY on 2009-01-19 08:19:00

HAVE RECENTLY MOVED TO NEW HOME. SO HAVE THE MOLES. NOT SURE WHAT TO TRY TO GET RID OF THEM. CAN'T DO TRAPS AS I HAVE DOGS OUTSIDE,NOR CAN I DO PELLETS AS THEY WOULD PROBABLY EAT THE PELLETS. I DID SPREAD A GRUB PESTICIDE SEVERAL MONTHS AGO BUT SEEMS LIKE THAT WAS AN INVITATION TO EVERY MOLE IN TOWN TO MOVE IN. ANY IDEAS?

    I remember when i was younger my aunt would burry a glass jar (like a large mayonaize jar) (approx. 2litres size) with the top open and about 10 cm below grade put some food at bottom and cover with anything; and the mole will get stuck and cannot escape; cannot climb out. old Czech remedy for moles.
