These suckers have made me angry. I have caught 5 in the last two days in the yard, and they are still making new mounds. I will keep after them, and hopefully get their numbers down to a manageable amount. Before I can mow the grass, I have to go around and spread out the mounds, so I don’t hit them with the mower!
A couple of years ago, we had a cicada invasion, and now it seems like these boring machines have found the buffet. I don’t know if the cicada larvae attract moles, or if it is just a coincidence, but I have declared total war on the destructive little vermin!


If your mind draws a blank, turn off the sound, because ya can't learn a thing if you're doin all the talkin

Have been at it myself. Harvest total is 5 as well. There are at least two more. Did spread grub killer and they don't seem to be in the places it was spread. Good luck.

Do what turkey time said . We had them bad at our old place . I went to the local feed store and got something in a bag , I don’t remember what it was called but I will figure it out and post it . But man did it work after a few days I started noticing grubs the size of your thumb just laying everywhere never had another mole for a few years . [Linked Image]

Same here. Went through a bucket of mole scram every 30 days plus rotating 6 mole traps. Caught 18 this spring.

Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.

I supervise the guys who.manage athletic fields. We use Talparid.looks like aa rubber worm. Kills moles. Has worked well for us but you have to follow the rules about getting the bait into the tunnels.
