[QUOTE="Lambeau, post: 16972826, member: 105189"] These are the best I've used. [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_0312.jpeg"]1815452[/ATTACH] About 75% catch/kill rate. Simple, safe for everyone but the mole, expensive, made in USA, won't break, won't rust, pretty effective. I've had some luck with the traps that have the spring loaded tines stabbing them, but they don't go deep enough. I've tried poison pellets and worms. Jeez, idk, that's ~50% success rate too. I don't like using poison. Besides, I want to see their dead carcass - lol. IMHO, observations and keys to catching/killing moles: 1) Use on fresh (within 12 hours) of them digging new, active tunnels. 2) They normally tunnel more after a rain. 3) Try to keep your hand scent off trap, especially the scissors. 4) Don't flatten out any more of the fresh tunnel other than where you set the trap. 4) Set trap as directed. Dude in video does it correctly. 5) IF you are successful, it'll be within the first 24 hours after you set the trap. After that, your success rate is ~ 10%. 6) I've caught them at all times of the day. Mostly late day, or early morning. 7) At times I've put the dead carcass back in the tunnel, other times, thrown it in the woods. Not really sure that it makes a difference. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
