You are correct that grubs are cause of moles. Kill the food source and they will leave eventually, so they say. I have to deal with them here up north and have to spray for the grubs a couple of times a growing season. Even that will not get rid of the moles totally as once the tunnel system is in place they have your place mapped. I have cut down a lot on the tunnels by placing rocks in the openings and forcing them down with a hand tamper. That has helped a lot.
Also I have noticed that if the soil is moist and in the shade you will have more moles. At one time I use to chase the neighbors cat out of the yard until I saw it one day chasing after a mole down my drive. The cat caught it and took it home. The cat can play in my yard anytime as long as he takes it's catch home.
