[QUOTE="Pokem807, post: 2988535, member: 7378"] I'm a little late to the party, but figured I'd throw this out there in case some folks are still having mole problems. My soil is very sandy, and the moles have been going crazy with all the rain lately. I've trapped 4 in the last two days using just one trap which I bought from TSC a few years back. The last one was in my garden, and he was a sneaky little bastid. The sandy loam in the garden is so soft that earlier today I was pushing a piece of rebar 2' down in the ground with little effort. Around the corn, the top few inches was even looser. Using two old mower blades to spread out the pressure/weight of the trap, I was able to set the trap and nail him. This is my first year gardening, and between hail, crazy wind and a few FEET of rain I'm not going to let the moles finish it off! Here's a pic to show the trap, how I set it, and the culprit. Hope this helps somebody. [ATTACH]101179[/ATTACH] And here's a pic of the garden just cause I'm proud of it. [ATTACH]101180[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
