Polly,

Whilst I can hear it when I am in their garden - it is not loud. Its a
quiet background noise that gets irritating because it is repetative. It
may also depend on your hearing range ;)

Hmm.... I supose I can hear it from approx 3 - 6 ft distance, you wouldn't
notice it further away than that, and definatley not in the house.

Hi

I've seen a battery operated device that emits sound waves to deter moles.
Does anyone know whether they work or not?


I have found them to be reasonably effective provided that you use
them as soon as the mole appears - not so effective if you wait
until there is an extensive network of runs .

Incidentally, should you visit France you can find these devices
priced at less than 10 GBP compared with the 30+ GBP in the UK :-(

And before I get flamed for
sending moles onto other peoples land, they will actually just stay
(hopefully) out of my garden and go into my surrounding fields where they
can do as they please. Thanks for any advice.

It was a dark and stormy night, and as the people of uk.rec.gardening
huddled around the fire, tulip told them this story:

They work. Just don`t mow them.
