What is your best defense for keeping moles out of the yard?

Posted on 07/18/2022 2:15:17 PM PDT by A Cyrenian

They seem to be on a terror this year.

I have tried Grubex. I have used Mole Max. And I have sprayed castor oil and dish soap.

We've had ton of rain this year and it seems like everything is getting washed away.

Have any tips on trying to reclaim my yard?

Leave a secret message under a rock. If someone tells you the message then they are a mole. Throw them roughly out of your yard.

Use an aerator with long tines.

My singing is so bad you figure to get a gun and shoot it, whatever it is....If my singing won’t get rid of them,I’m out of ideas, too....Mine are gophers.....I suspect they sit underground plotting and laughing at me....We even had a blue heron adopt our front yard ,because they looooove gophers...No such luck and even the blue heron gave up....

Fresh unused chewing gum. Juicy Fruit. Roll it up and drop it down the Gopher Hole. The gopher will eat it and it will not pass thru the digestive system. Eventually, the gopher’s digestive system will explode. Result…death.

I used a broom handle to poke holes into their tunnels and dropped mothballs into them. Either that works or they were just done with my yard.

There is only one way that works. You have to put down pesticide that rids your yard of the grubs and insects in your yard. If you’ve done that and not gotten rid of them do it again.

The moles are after the critters in your yard.

I don’t know, but if you find out let me know.

There is some stuff that you spray on the yard that’s supposed to drive them away, but I think it would cost a lot for a good-sized yard. Also, the package says it’s garlic based, and I HATE garlic. I’d rather have the moles than have to smell garlic the whole time I’m cutting the grass.
