AI said it may affect beneficial microorganisms and that some gov entities have considered banning or limiting it. Take that for what you will. Said nothing about plants and I have no idea about the four legged critters. It’s just wishful thinking on my part because I’m loaded with moles here. I would love it if I could get them to all pop their heads up.
When I was 12, dad got me a pony. We had the land but no fencing so he got the guy to keep the pony until a fence could be built. Dad worked every weekend & was digging fenceposts, maybe a half dozen, then coming back to set the posts a couple of days later. We were finding moles in just about every post hole. The holes cut through their tunnels, they fell in the holes, & at that depth/bottom of the hole it was solid clay & they couldn’t dig out. The ‘moles in holes’ is my most vivid memory of that fence project.
Pricey @ $1,500 & you have better things on which to spend your money, but you might ‘enjoy’ the thought of blasting tunnels .... no heads popping up necessary. :-)

Heh, yeah, we have lots of moles too, and we had a mole a few days ago dig a tunnel right up to out back porch (concrete @ barely over ground level): The mole’s little project ended right there, but, one of our cats evidently attempted to dig it up, which threw dirt all over the porch, and then of course we got a roughly 1” rain t’storm that night, so the dirt washed all over the porch. ANOTHER clean up job, and wifey wonders why I’m slow to get to her “honey” (”you bum!”) do’s...
(She doesn’t actually call me a bum, she just infers it by saying I work industriously... on all the wrong stuff!)
