Got any interesting ideas on how to get rid of moles?

[ximmy]

I've tried:
Traps: Stupid. they just come back.
Water flushing: won't work. They have a drainage system.
Used motor oil poured into hole: Works temporarily. they come back
Ammonia & chlorine: makes a gas smoke & works temporarily. they come back
Exhaust fumes piped into hole: (if you can find two holes and plug them both) works for 2-3 months. they come back
Road flairs [Smoke]: works for 2-3 months (if you can find a second hole that is connected and flair them both). works for 2-3 months. they come back.
Cat: Tries all the time. Only gets birds and mice from somewhere. Can't seem to catch a mole.

What are they eating?

I think gassing is the best way but I believe they must have doors sealed off in certain areas.

I wonder if there is another animal that can be inserted into the mole domain area.

Or not as fun but they work! Still using one that my grandfather got back in the 50's still killing those suckers 60 years later, tho it is sorta rusty now and beat up. Find an active run and collapse the tunnel and then place the trap and trigger right on the collapsed tunnel , when the critters open the tunnel up it springs the trap and that critter is history, rinse and repeat.

It runs them through with cold steel which should be another doomer favorite!

Be more fun if they explode and go bang so if you hear a bang, time to celebrate!

Edit!

Ximmy if your neighbors have moles, no matter what you do they will come back. Kill all in your yard, just makes room for the neighborhood moles to move into!

Fact! ;(

Go to the pet store and buy a bunch of snakes.

Besides there is the fear that Tyson would not only get rid of the moles, but would scare away all the neighborhood pets, out of fear he would eat them! :(

Hell, go for broke and up the anti into Megaton's. That way the moles will be wiped out for a few dozen square miles!

Problem solved, no moles, no neighborhood, no pesky neighbors, etc!

Of course no house ether, or on the other hand if she can convince her neighbors to get rid of their moles it would help on the returning mole problem!

[Hitch]

I like the Foreman idea. Also, George has his famous grill. Ximmy could have a big BBQ with the moles she catches with the Foreman grill. Think mole kabobs, chicken fried mole, mole burgers..

[Santa]

We had rats and squirrels and gophers and birds and tortoises and who knows what else just up and leave the property one day.

Couldn't figure out why till we spotted a great big southern yellow rat snake dozing on an overhanging tree branch above the patio.

[BrewTech]

Divide the moles into two groups, inject a lot of propaganda claiming the other side has declared jihad and wants them dead because they believe in a false god. Finance both sides of the conflict. Eventually they will kill each other off, leaving you the master of the world...

No luck with a good air rifle. First, you rarely see them, even the cat waits for hours on end. Once I saw one when it was raining. he was running back and forth between two holes trying to fill them up. Only about 3 inches long and 1 inch thick. No way in the world I could hit that.

I practice on lizards and can hit one, once about every 5-6 times. They are too small.

[Cebu_4_2]

Nothing worked for me until I did a little research on the areas the moles were hanging out in. Me and a neighbor got some stuff, I don't remember what brand but it was similar to grub-ex. Took a year to work conclusively but was the best thing I ever tried. You have to starve the moles away, otherwise they will always return.

[Neuro]

Any particular reason you want to get rid of them?

Get a small set of waterproof loud speakers

and play Bolero underground for them in a continuous loop.

Good question. Personally, I don't have anything against moles. In fact, I dislike suburban lawns more than I dislike moles.
I think the spread of pretty lawns are a major consumer bane on American culture. Pretty lawns attract La Raza.

Maybe I should start collecting bags of moles from the woods and releasing them into the more upscale suburban neighborhoods
as an exercise in environmental terrorism.

There are no pretty lawns with La Raza? From what I know, it one of the traits "La Raza" looks for to know he's on gringos turf.

If I were so inclined, but I'm not...
I would probably hire a white landscaper, who would then employ a la raza worker. :o

I enjoy my property landscape, I like to sit out there, relaxing on occasion, knowing I take care of it all by myself.

I wonder... has anyone ever eaten a mole?
What if they are an unknown culinary delight something like a truffle?

The lots in my neighborhood are pretty large. I have a small one, 1/4 acre. The guy behind me has 5 acres. I have two good neighbors on either side (THANK GOD!) with good sized lots so we are not cramped in.

What's the matter, ximmy? Can't face nature as it's honestly presented to you? Must you bitch slap it and dominate it while sitting in your lawn chair?
Poisoning the bugs...shooting the lizards... spaying the cats....whacking the moles? It's a societal compulsion. A symptom of PTSD brought about by 1000's of years of war.
The War on Nature. Kill it. Beat it...Subjugate it. Anything to prevent a weed from encroaching. Anything to avoid peace from seeping in under the leaf litter.

Hey, I have an idea... catch the mole and patiently leash train it to ride on your shoulder while at work...that'd be cool.

It's funny, but because I raise a few chickens, I started getting rats, and the rats started chewing the wires in my car, so I set about trapping
and poisoning...and couldn't keep the fuckers out. Till one day the rat snake came along and solved my problem.

The moral to the story is that Nature solves problems. People make problems.

Assuaging guilt or casting blame. About as balanced as a debt/credit based economic platform.

That's a nice size lot. It reminds me of one societal collapse book I read where a guy lived in a similar situation. What he did, which was very sharp, was when the EMP hit and wiped everything out. He put up official looking foreclosure signs in the front of the house. He then moved all the furniture from the front rooms and hide in one of the back rooms. When the looting started, the looters passed by his house thinking it was empty...foreclosed upon.

Then, once all the neighbors left because they bugged out, or ran out of supplies, he planted a large garden on the adjoining lots next to his.

Pretty good book. I read a lot, and tend to appreciate what clever things people do to survive.

[milehi]

I smoke them to death with a gopher gas called Giant Destroyer. You get four sticks for five bucks from Ace Hardware or any garden center. Cover all holes but one, light her off, stick it in the open hole, then cover. Completely safe for you. I only needed one for enemy activity to drop off to nothing.

Didn't mean to offend you. If you can see the ribcage, that means malnourished, bottom line. Some gals can be like that, it's in their genes, but too many starve themselves trying to seek that image to make me think it's the "design" of a woman's body.

Women have it tougher than men, I think, in that regard.

These products are designed to keep you in pests, that's how these companies stay alive.
They are probably more nutritious for moles and gophers than the most gourmet cat and dog food.
