What the hell are snow moles?

A blanket of snow is actually a good insulator and moles (or other small
rodents) will dig tunnels under the snow and in the grass. While
generally not a big problem, I did lose a bush one year when they ate the
branches during the winter.

Moles burrow under lawns in search of food such as earthworms and grubs,
they're not called snow moles.

I wouldn't bother to cut it, but if you haven't fertilized it, you might
want to do that in the early spring.

He'll have snow mold out the ying yang if he over-winters his lawn
excessively long. Those blades will lay over and mat down, forming the
perfect enviroment for fungus.
