My grandfather used to stand over a mound with a homemade stick with a spike sticking out the end. When the dirt moved he would stab the little guy. I remember seeing 5 to 10 moles on the sidewalk at a time, I guess grandpa's trophies. Man them were the good ole days........

Varmint Cong :lol: :lol: :lol:Curtis are you a chewer or a non-chewer? If you're a chewer, your scent is on the gum, so go ahead and pop her in without the gloves. No sense in wasted motion.

I like the Cat idea. Maybe you could rent a good one for a few days. LOL
You are right about the grubs. You can kill the grubs overnight if you use a simple pesticide and water the yard gooooood. The water is what activates the pesticide. You can use plan old dish washing detergent and your garden hose to flush any mole crickets or grubs out of the ground.
(only need to test in a small area) It want kill them, but it will make 'em come out of the ground so you can identify what's under there.
As for the mole you probably have several of 'em so don't give up after you catch 1 and don't tell your buddies what their eating for the 4th!!!

I recently had the same problem and tried the poison bait, the spike trap and the grub eliminator spray. All were worthless. Finally bought a gopher and mole repellent at Lowes and followed the directions. Problem seems to be under control as of now. Doesn't kill them but they do go away. My neighbors have the problem now.
