How are you all managing the varmints in your yard? I’ve lived in a lot of places in my life and it seems I’ve found quite the mole and vole hotbed also known as my yard. sighs
My dog is able to catch them, but not without digging up tunnels, grass, and making a mess. My neighbor inserts “worms” (poison) into the tunnels, but I don’t do that because of our dog.
I wish I could lay a yellow brick road for them to follow to a happier place, but they don’t seem to be the type to understand. I don’t actually want to harm any critters and thus the inner turmoil of humankind vs nature. I really don’t like this post and I’m the one who wrote it.
They seemed to work better when moved around regularly. So pulling them up, mowing, and then sticking them back in different spots is probably a good idea.
Hmm. This might be worth trying. And moving them to mow could work. Thank you!
Assuming they are effective, my only concern then is how they might affect other creatures. I understand that it radiates into the ground, but I’m also worried about things above ground. I’m particularly concerned about birds if it can affect them at all. I wouldn’t want to deter them.
That’s a good point!
