I knew a mole catcher once but he was very cruel with the moles he caught. He used to bury them alive! ;D ;D If I catch it I'll bury it too..........in two places. The Sparrow Hawk I let off last week nearly decapitated me yesterday, I walked through the door as it was in pursuit of a Dove and it combed my hair. Don't know which of us was more surprised. |

Actually I didn't take it, I found it on the net. It's a bird of prey and called a hobby.

Moles have returned to the flower garden, i fear i may need to get a catcher in, or try humane traps down in the tunnel.

I must say they are pretty furry creatures Rosie, but you would be better to be rid of them and get the traps that kill I think. Try to do it yourself unless your mole catcher is cheap. They never get them all and we have permanent traps here. Put the trap in the tunnel, not the hole, and put a stake in to mark the trap. Get used to putting the marker just in front of the trap. The trap does not have to be too deep, but must be in a tunnel. You will get used to doing this and living next to a field, you might have to. I have just noticed that you know about the mole tunnel. Have you done this before?
