And so do those poison "peanuts" in the cone shaped yellow container, and the Amdro Gopher gassers.
This week has been exceptionally productive for me. Found mice and voles at home, and been fighting moles at church for years. BAD mole problems.
Earlier in the week I found extensive burrowing critter evidence in the garden as I rip out the dead plants. Sprinkled those poison pellets, and when cleaning a couple days ago I raked up a nice size field mouse.
Then I discovered evidence of a vole in front of the house. after scaring him into a burrow, I let off two gopher gassers into the entrance. No sign of him since.
Another trustee put out one of the poison worms for the mole at church last week. On a whim as I was puttering around the building waiting for the wife to finish choir practice I decided to wander to where the moles were bad and see if it looked like activity had subsided. As I approached the bump right by the sidewalk where the trustee had placed a worm (that was no longer there) I saw something move. I kicked the pile of dirt and out tumbled a mole onto the curb that was the size of a baseball when curled up. A pretty big sucker. With no other tools than my G19 handy I did my best imitation of Frank and dispatched the critter while yelling "STOP RESISTING!".
The only downside is right as I was curb stomping, one of the blue hairs arrived and was a little distraught that I had just dispatched one of God's creatures. I'm sure she will get over it. (though she looked like she might faint at the time)
Its been a good week.
Oh, and I dont know if those worms actually poison them, but they do bring them to the surface for a while so you can stomp the crap out of them.
