I see that Ken Cooke has noted mole activity in his report today. Over
the past week my wife and I have spotted mole activity everywhere
we've been on a massive scale - apart (touch wood) from our garden.
Is this in response to the frosts we've been experiencing?
David Mitchell. 2m bsl. Minor hill top. Tunnelshire.
Same here. B***dy things are making a huge mess of my met enclosure.
The yhave a 5 acre field to play in and they have to dig up my
enclosure!
OT sure, but if anyone knows a foolproof (preferably fairly humane)
way of discouraging the blighters let me know please ... I bought a
solar-powered mole scarer a couple of years back, that seemed to do
the trick for a while, but now it/they dig holes right next to it.
Grrr!!
My Dad used to get lots of badgers digging up his garden. He pinned a wire
mesh down over the lawn. Within a few months the mesh was invisible and it
is impenetrable by the badgers.
