Ground moles are invading my yard, heading for the garden. Any sure fire
ways to get rid of them? I can get some sort of worm that has poison in it
from the pest control place but they are very expensive. I know chewing
gum, peanut butter, etc. does not work. Any ideas or suggestions? I live
in Toledo, Oh, whatever zone that is.
thanx


A cat will keep them down but not eliminate them. My cat catches a rodent
a day during the summer, a mix of moles, mice and chipmunks. It would be
nice if I could tell him to concentrate on moles, but he has his own
agenda.



Your cat is a slacker. ;-)

Our gray tabby female used to catch 2 to 3 per day of moles, gophers,
ground squirrels and rabbits.

She was death on garden pests.......
