Will beat Mr Mole this year... cues are in pots
« on: February 26, 2008, 17:09 »
Last summer Mr Mole ate my cuecumber roots, well chewed through them anyway, so this year I have planted my seeds in large tubs.  Just planted out my dwarf bean plants, just got to make sure the pup does not dig them up now :lol: He can rush through the tiniest of gaps as I open the gate onto the garden :x

I've got quite a bad case of moles.
I've tried all the usual old things, vibrating probes, smelly things in the runs, windmill sticks, bottles buried up to their necks.

now, if only I could find a few landmines I reckon I might start getting somewhere.

I was standing on the patio and saw the soil suddenly come up into a mole hill, I rushed to get a spade but was too late!  None of our neighbours have moles, just us :cry:  Not that I wish them on anybody else, but it would be good if they took their share of the mole family.  I did try putting mole poison down a hole, I put it in a glass jar (3 jars) and checked a couple of days leter and 2 of the lots of poison had gone :shock:  But still Mr Mole was moving about in the garden, we have had a better response with the windmills. Luckily the patio has a metal mesh as a base in the concrete, the tunnel was so big going under the patio you could have driven a dinky car through it :shock:

But does she have a pet passport Grannie Annie????  Wouldn´t mind, Jims Grandpa was a Game Keeper for Sir Alex Douglas Home and he (GP not ADH) was a champion at mole catching- shame he didn´t pass on any tips to the family :lol:
