This is how they handle squirrels in Spokane:

No reason why it shouldn't work on any ground burrowing animal....

I was looking a the stuff in my Blazer this evening.
It looks nice with all the legends and markings lit.

But it's not engraved.

In fact, it is probably silk screened (Doh!)

Wouldn't that be a hoot...

Something better: Get your oxy/aceteleyne , fill the hole with acetylene
gas, add some oxygen, then light the torch and put it down the hole. It
make a fine fuel/air explosive!

More likely blow some dirt in your face.
Those holes aren't very big - nor deep.

Maybe your Texas moles are really not all that big, after all/

Here in NC, the tunnels go on for dozens of yards. I think the idea shows a
touch of genius. I gotta try it!

It would make me feel better, at least! ggg

The idea is not to rid your lawn of ground moles, but rather to make a big boom,
and to see your turf peeling up into the air..

If killing the moles was the intent, you could do something boring like put down
grub killer on your lawn. Yawn! g
