That sounds like an excellent solution to moles. We’ve never had a problem with them in our yards, but they are definitely here in New England:
Moles, family Talpidae
Hairy-tailed Mole, Parascalops breweri
Distribution: Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, northern and western Connecticut, and Rhode Island.
Eastern Mole, Scalopus aquaticus
Distribution: Central and southern Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island.
Subspecies: Scalopus aquaticus aquaticus according to Hall (1981) and Whitaker and Hamilton (1998).
Star-nosed Mole, Condylura cristata
Star-nosed Mole
Distribution: Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island.
Subspecies: Condylura cristata cristata according to Hall (1981) and Whitaker and Hamilton (1998).
I'm not going to worry about the moles too much. I know people around here that drive themselves nutz trying to get rid of them with traps and poison.
This yard is big enough for me and a few moles.
