Sounds like a mole. Are there any molehills?

had experience with them thar critters myself....

here's what i did....dont know if it was a combination or what but it works not only for moles 'n mice but others too..

i sprinled generously cedar scented moth balls....use the balls and not the flakes so you can get the maximum amount of life expectancy for the balls...human hair ( i use human hair on almost every outdoor plant wether i smoke it or just smell it)....then i used dog hair...i had my own dog volunteer as he usually does....



if it is a mice hole...there could be unwanted babies in there....u'll hear 'em if they're there, they make a small annoying noise...
(Put a Trap)


I've noticed they burrow near where there is say bird/animal feeders...and in my case it's up at my camp...they've got holes everywhere and i do have food for birds and deer in various places...so all i can do is CONTROL them!!

try that and let us know how u got your hair.....

i figure if it works out in the bush where the moose, bear and deer run the 'Show'...it's gotta work on a smaller scale...!

Were the dogs happy about the shave? Mine reluctantly donates to my cause....
