Advice on getting rid of moles
We have a mole problem in our back yard , I'm afraid the little devils might kill our big willow tree. The dogs haven't gotten them yet, any advice on getting rid of them? Have heard of using black pepper, soda pop, vinegar and backing soda, garden hose and drowning them, cayanne pepper. Was curious on what others have done.

Call Bill?
On a serious note I've heard poisoned worms work great. I've got a bad mole problem and have been thinking about trying them

Spray area with Bifen XTS.
Kills virtually all insects including the grubs the moles are looking for. Have you done the drowning with garden hose with the dogs waiting for them to pop out? Our dogs went plum crazy everytime I drug the garden hose out for anything after the first wack-mole suicide by beagle event. |

Guess I could try garden hose / 12ga 00 buckshot event! Except the neighbors might freak out! Lol

Thread I did on the same problem a while ago.
http://www.onlycubcadets.net/forum/s...ad.php?t=32721 I've pretty much killed the mole food supply. Not done yet but much better. Put this stuff on at about 4 times the recommended rate Spectracide Triazicide. Have to admit that the Rodenator sounded like fun.

We have a friend who charges $20 for every mole he kills and he gets a lot of business around town. He uses harpoon traps exclusively. I've found that the best of this type is the one made by Victor, the one with the long spikes. The trick is to locate the tunnel precisely; it isn't always right under the mound (go figure). Use the flag wire to find the tunnel then set the trap. I picked off two this weekend with these. The one that works best for me is the Nash choker trap. It's harder to set, but the hit rate is pretty high; if a mole sets it off it's a gonner. The Easy Set mole eliminator also works good too, and is easy to set. In this part of the world they eat earthworms as well as grubs so poisoning the grubs won't help.

My wife got mole poison at the local Agway and it works great.
It's small pieces that you put in the holes and they eat them. We started this late winter/early spring and it actually works. |

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
