MOLES! What would Bill Murray do? We have a mole in our garden. He's drilling beneath our lawn...

We have a mole in our garden. He's drilling beneath our lawn and stalking our vegetable garden. I'm in favor of blowing him up beside TNT like the Rodent Cong he is, but my fiance would rather hold our yard intact. How do I get rid of him short endangering the vegetables?
purchase castor oil granule (local farm bureau) sprinkle it and water it within...they do not like the smell and leave the nouns. DO NOT HURT HIM! ITS HIS EARTH TO, YOU KNOW. Use a nice, friendly, humane trap.


This tip for ridding your yard from moles was given to me by the folks from the Ontario Seed Company. Buy some Juicy Fruit gum and put a stick of it into respectively hole that you can find. It will literally " gum up their works".Make sure that you don't touch the gum with your fingers. I've tried it and it worked in our courtyard. There is something called 'mole chasers' ... they use batteries and distribute vibrating noises out. But someone told me put doublemint gum contained by the holes. ?? Haven't tried that yet.
Answers:    Moles can ruin a lawn beside tunnels but won't hurt your garden. They are after insects and the grubs in your lawn. Get rid of the grubs and the moles will leave your job. If you have a gopher, that is a different story. Many home remedies but traps or poison are the most forceful.
