Battling a Yard Mole

Notice our serious faces for this serious work....we've been battling a persistent little pest in our front yard the past month. It's amazing how much destruction a small mammal can cause (in our yard and in our flower beds) from digging all sorts of extensive tunnels in the soil below. We're open to suggestions if anyone has tips for this battle!?

  1. We had a pesky gopher when we use to live in San Diego, go to Home Depot and buy the BlackBox Gopher Trap, it's a black plastic box it will walk into and it will trigger a loop that will capture it. Worked for us a few times, you dig down into their tunnel and place it. It worked will water, smoke etc didn't. Good luck!

  4. See if you can find "castor oil granules." just read two articles about it. One pound covers 1,000 sq ft.
