Opal fruits in the holes. Takes about a week.

I know a guy who catches moles. Don’t suppose that helps much though.

Yes.

A molecatcher, I,
and that is my trade.
I potter about
with my spunt and my spade


Molecatcher is, so I understand, an all-but-defunct vocation. Find one, hire one.

Pretty rare now. A mole catcher can easily earn over a fiver per mole from farmers and horsey types round my way. I think they would want more for a one off like Frodder’s Garden mole.

You surely can buy a mole trap. Dig down between the two newest mounds, find their tunnel, insert trap and close up. Some are tubes which humanely trap the mole, but the one I used was like a sort of bear trap which clamps the little fella as he tries to push through.

Trap humanely and re-locate if it's such a bother. The poor critter doesn't deserve to be killed for the oh so heinous crime of unknowingly messing up your garden by following its instincts.

I would never think of that. I don't want to hurt the little chap and just want him to relocate to the green belt just over the garden fence
