Or are they a waste of money?

I think a hosepipe down the run and leave water running for an hour is
very effective - it also waters the roots of the lawn.


I doubt that works...

Anyone with a mole problem should read this DEFRA survey of mole control
methods used across Europe, Just about every old wives tale is covered. It
runs to 30 pages...
