we are having ground mole tearing up the yard! how do you get rid of them?

Answer 1

You can buy little stink bombs (they kind of remind me of little dynamite sticks) and shove them inside of the holes and block the passages to as many other holes as you see (as they tunnel under the ground). They usually either die inside their tunnels that way or they run out the other hole (if not blocked) and usually die later from the toxins...

Or, set your dog on them...

Answer 2

If they don't eat grubs the will eat the roots of grass, flowers etc. I bought an electronic stake that goes in the ground and gives off a high pitched beep and vibration every 28 sec. You can get them at Lowes or Home Depot. It takes 4 D batteries and lasts for 6 months. It costs $20 and it got rid of the moles. I think it is definitely worth the money. Doesn't hurt them just drives them crazy.

Answer 3

You can also use sticks of Juicy Fruit gum. First, wear gloves and tear sticks of Juicy Fruit in thirds and roll them into small tubes or "worms". Next, use a stick to poke a hole into one of the tunnels and drop it in. The moles will eat the gum and die shortly thereafter.
You can also use a childs pinwheel toy in your yard and the vibrations will chase them away.

Answer 4

Treat your yard for grubs. They are the main food supply for moles. When the food source is gone, so are the moles.

Answer 5

Rmalko is right. If you can't find / afford that right away, you can make them miserable by flushing their burrows with a hose, and also by putting sticks of Juicy Fruit gum in the burrows. They will eat it and can't digest it - it acts as a poison.
