Default Mole Problem

I know this sounds strange but we had moles in our yard in MA and someone told me to use urine soaked kitty liter and it really worked. Just remove the solid waste from the box and pour the urine soaked liter down the hole. We had a cat so we had plenty and a friend would ask for some and it cured both of our mole problems.

Would you believe they had traps set up over at the polo field for moles. These traps were designed to spike the mole as he ascends from his hole. I called the head of Villages Watch and told him some dog might get spiked in the nose or paw with those traps and they were, subsequently, removed.

See, I am a dog, and cat lover for that matter. Just have a problem with their masters.

We had a problem with moles in MO. We purchased spearmint gum in silver wrap - the stick kind. Take the wrapped stick and place in the hole. Moles love spearmint, but will choke on the foil and die. Sounds goofy, but never had another mole after putting out the gum. PS - our neighbors used this method also and never had another mole.

I'd look on some farm sight on the internet and buy some mole poison and put that in their holes.

Put their picture on TOTV and maybe we can find a forever home for the poor little things.

Carguy, who used to post more on this forum had them in his yard. He backed to a fence and "outerlands" north of 466A.

Chewing gum worked for us.
