I was trying to find a reference to Jasper Carrotts routine of 'There's only one way to get rid of a mole' .......... but failed! :-[  ;D ;D ;D

To prove I'm not making it up .... http://www.tlzone.net/forums/uk-forum-including-scotland/93325-looking-jasper-carrott-mole-video.html

"mmmmm, Mothballs & Garlic, tasty......."

"there's only one way to get rid of a mole - BLAST ITS BL**DY HEAD OFF"

"so there I was, sat on my swivel chair, with a torch strapped to the barrel of the shot-gun, when I saw some activity. My finger twitched to pull the trigger, and it was exactly as I did this that I realised I had never fired a shot-gun before .........."

"And there they were, the two local police men, leaning on the gate. One said "watcha doin carrot?", and the other said "impersonatin' a lighthouse by the look of it"

Thanks Richie. I even saw that but thought it must've been a kids cartoon he'd narrated.  :y

If it was me I'd be camping out with my air rifle fitted with lamp waiting for the tinker.  There used to be a few squirrels that frequented my garden ::) ::)

I had a mole in my garden in France, I tried everything, including traps, poison, electronic scaring devices.  ::)

The end result: Mole 1, Rod 0  >:( >:( >:( >:(

I gave up in the end, so good luck, I hope you are more successful than I was.

We had our very English grass patch (could not in all honesty call it a lawn) invaded by a mole or moles when we lived in Holland.  Despite living in a farming village, our house was on the main (only) street and the nearest patch of bare earth must have been at least 50m away. 

We lived next door to the chemist's shop, and the shopkeeper's husband, who looked like Sean Connery, dressed like Harold Steptoe, had some kind of agricultural employment (we never discovered what in the 15 years we lived there) and hardly ever spoke, took pity on us after a few weeks of our persecution.  He informed us, via one of his children that he would "deal with" the mole. 

We never found out what he did, but we never had any further trouble.  I suspect he had underworld connections.

I could give you his address, if that would help, but I doubt if he does house calls...

Get a bottle of calor gas, pipe from the gas bottle into the mole run and empty the bottle.....  Go to the other molehill, find the hole, and from a safe distance throw a burning rag or similar in or near... Boooom!!! and the mole is [smiley=engel017.gif]

Best performed at night, with a bunch of mates to see the pyrotechnics and a few litres of strong cider  :y :y :y

Oh and don't stand near the house...... ;D ;D ;D

If you do this with Calor gas and the lowest point where the mole has dug is beneath you house (as Calor gas sinks) then expect your house to look like this:

It will solve the mole problem as you won't have a house and you won't be living there.  ::) :o :D

But it would make 'an interesting' insurance claim. "I was just trying to get rid of this mole with Calor Gas and...."  ;D ;D ;D ;D
