Just buying a mole trap was enough. It has now disappeared into the fields
behind my house from whence it came.
I didn't want to kill it if I could avoid it.
but when it came right up the house undermining paths I thought I might have
to.

So it's all good. The mole is gone for the moment but I have a mole trap in
case.

Just be sure that you keep the trap somewhere it can't pick up smells
etc. I keep mine outside where they can weather.

I bought one called a Defender, it has good reviews and has a very powerful
spring, I can hardly set it, it's so strong.
I will note your advice about weathering it, thank you, but atm Mr Mole
(after being here for weeks) seems to be gone. Which is a relief because I
didn't want to kill it until it came right up to the house and was
undermining my paths.
