Moles, the solution.

We have been plagued by moles, every day more and more mounds, our lawn ruined.

About a week ago we spotted the local hawks circling around our house, they normally hunt the local fields, since then NOT ONE NEW MOLE HILL!!!

Coincidence, maybe.

So folks if you have a mole problem then get a pet hawk

Hawks can catch moles see this

I also had a cat who caught a mole , it waited patiently by a mole hill until it saw the slightest movement and with one swipe of his claws pulled it straight out of the hole, I dont think the cat had done this before and he backed off a bit wondering what he had, giving me the chance to get the mole and release it in nearby woods

Love it

Back in the 70's my Dad had a similar problem, so one Sunday morning in the Summer, he took his paper and his coffee out into the garden.... Sat down and placed the 5-shot Franchi semi auto shotgun across his knees, and proceeded to read the Sunday paper....... Very soon a molehill started to arise...... when it got to an "average height" he let loose with two rounds..... No more mole

It really works
