We had a mole issue in our front yard. It is amazing to see how far they can dig in short order. We used the poison gummy worms and that drove him to the back yard. Our male dachshund knew he was not supposed to dig in the dirt, but his breeding and nature overruled training and he was shoulder deep in the mud in short order. That seems to have driven him to the neighbors yard and they hired a exterminator and problem solved. I feel certain our back yard will remain free of mice, and moles. He has captured several mice and almost got a mole. Lizards and snakes have been dispatched. I have had to rescue a few snakes from him.

Moles are a minor problem of grubs. Skunks are a MUCH bigger issue. We had a skunk show up and the first visit resulted in the side of the body spraying of our dog. The second visit a few weeks later got the dog right in the face. I wanted to put down the grub killing granules but my wife is concerned that the runoff might get into the koi pond. So maybe I will pay the yard weed spray guy to put down a liquid grub killer next spring.
