He promptly found the run and dropped some mp3 earbuds into the hole, turned up the volume and, hey presto, the next door neighbours garden was plagued with the little blighters. Have since tried it and it does work. A friend of mine was plagued with moles in his terraced house and heard that they hate loud noise.

It is even possible to "steer" the little devils with the stuff. The method :- Collect a gallon or so of urine(human or animal)in a watering can. Fork the ground in a semi circle roughly 6 feet from the offending mole hill and dib a hole through the offending hill into the tunnel underneath it. Pour the urine into both the forked holes and the dibbed hole. You will find that the mole will then abandon that area. Keep repeating the same MO with the moles other workings and you will find sooner rather than later he will sling his hook. The notion behind it :- The urine will make the existing tunnel unworkable and the semi circle of urine will discourage the mole from advancing any further in that particular direction. You may find my suggestion a little strange but I first dreamed it up about 30 years ago and it worked every time it was needed and if it doesn`t work for you then what have you lost !!
