While the usefullness od Milky Spore is dubious at best, I have a
solution to my mole problem, along with other varmints.
Two young cats. Wednesday they left me a present of two moles and a
mouse in the driveway. And I have not seen any rabbits in a year.
Hopefully the rabbits just moved on from our yard, they were cute, after
all.
It's kinda funny to see how they regard the possum and racoon, aloof,
but attentive.

I rather like moles but last year we had one aggressive mole who had a
terrible fondness for the pulpit garden, undermined the whole area. So
when a cat finally got that bugger I wasn't upset. As it turned out
though, there was a beetle larvae infestation which I'm now trying to
treat with bacillus, but that can take a while, and in the meantime quite
a few things are getting nibbled on. The mole's fixation on that
particular garden turns out to have been an early warning, and the mole
was probably doing that garden a favor.
