Moles are horrible to catch. I go so incensed with them some years back I actually sat in a chair and waited for them to start digging.. Never caught one.
The best deterrent I've seen is using that white grub killer. Spread that on the lawn periodically and it seems to keep them away.
...just make sure your neighbor doesn't use it and they'll move on...
if you kill the food the moles eat in your yard (the grubs) they will go elsewhere (the neighbors) to dine.
I thought the same, but the worm population appears to be going well. I'm thinking the grub killer makes either the soil or the worms taste bad, not that I have any experience eating dirt or worms...
Are you talking about milky spore or something else? Milky spore is a natural bacteria that attacks the grubs and comes in a white power that you put a teaspoon on the lawn every X feet and it takes a season to start working and then continues working for something like 10 years (supposedly).

I don't know. It says it kills grubs. I didn't read the fine print except to what to set the spreader to.
Sounds like it is not milky spore.

...there are currently a few adult rabbits on our lawn and they seem to be hatching offspring who have taken a great liking to some of the plants on our borders, the little sods are tempting me to open fire with my air rifle
... Imagine going outside and grabbing your kid's pet rabbit, and serving it to your kids for supper......
I've eaten Rabbit and it's not to my taste....threatening them with an appearance on my dinner table isn't working BTW
