Some tips to get rid of moles in Garden
Moles have a dislike for stony soil, heavy clay or areas of soil which have been compacted. This is because they use their heads to tunnel with and because their skulls are quite frail, any resistance in the soil is likely to put them off digging there.
Shovel the animal into a covered plastic tub or trash can for easy transport and release, far away from human dwellings.
