I have moles taking over my yard and eating all my young plants. I am looking for a natural remedy to get rid of them. I don't want to use poisons because of my dogs and children.
Please, if someone could suggest something, I would be so greatful.

As you are walking thru the yard and feel one of their raised runs, pull back the dirt and put hair in it and cover it back up.Do it every 5 feet or so. I don't know why they hate human hair. It worked for us. We got the hair at the beauty parlor. m

To repel gophers and moles, shove a few fresh sheets of Bounce Classic into the tunnel openings and then fill the openings with dirt. The fragrance of oleander, a natural repellent, repulses gophers and moles. Also, spreading maxwellhouse coffee grounds around your yard repels moles- and simultaneously fertilizes your lawn and garden.

I've heard using chocolate works ( dropping it into the tunnel), but I don't know if it harms them.
I've also heard of putting a small transistor radio in the tunnel and playing radical music (that gets me out).

You can plant (I know this sounds crazy) the 5 cent bubble gum in your yard. There is something about when they eat it, it expands inside them or something.
