Either of the 2 Rodenators work well but they are a bit expensive for moles they work well on them furry things wi long ears as well PUFF

Blummin moles dig my garden up all year round here!

Always wondered why we don't have moles in Ireland. I know we don't have snakes thanks to Saint Patrick  . Did you hear what Saint Patrick said to the snakes as he drove them out of Ireland? 'Are yee alright there in the back lads, yer looking a bit car sick!

[Wizard]

Hello that fool Wizard had to open his GOB dint he?Its reverted back to wet cold miserable weather in Grimsby and I have had to turn on the room light I cannot see the keyboard without I noticed the 1st ad below is a pair of Rodenators for mole control at a price though.Is there a demand for moleskin breeches wi cross pockets nowadays der yer reckon?

Would you like some? I've got at least one to spare! The lawn is looking a right mess, what with the chickens, and the moles, and the rats! The rats have found an ideal home near the chicken coops    I've bought rat traps but they're either too clever or too stupid!

[doganjo]

For rats - buy rat poison, put it in small poly bags tied at the top.  Put them where you know the rats are but out of reach of the chickens.  The rats will take the food away to their nest and share it with the family - keep on putting bags there till they are not taken away and you've killed all the rats in the nest.

Thanks Annie! I have been chucking poison down their burrows, but as yet they don't seem to affect them, so I'll try your tip. I'm in mortal fear of poisoning my own chooks but my husband assures me that other animals don't like the taste of rat poison. I'm not sure how he knows that, lol, but he seems quite sure of it so I believe him 

[doganjo]

No, I wouldn't believe him.  I heard of a dog eating it and not being able to be saved.  But in the poly bags it's less likely especially if you put it somewhere other animals can't get it - in crevices etc.

[sagehen]

Oh dear I'll tell him that! How would the rats know to take the bags away - I suppose they can smell them? I hate the darn things; I know I'm supposed to like all of God's creatures but they really bug me, and they've been stealing eggs!

[Daisys Mum]

I have rats burrowing under my hen houses, I would put poison down but I am worried that my cat will then eat the rat! Would it kill her too, I don't think that she eats them all but sometimes there are missing bits.
Oh and yes it is definately spring, the mud is now top of the wellie hight,

[doganjo]

Yes, it would if she ate it.  my cat kills rats but doesn't eat them.  The rats can smell the food through the bag and prefer to take it away to eat in the nest to eating it there and then .

[ballingall]

Generally, cats and dogs don't eat rats as they are other carnivores. However, you can't rely on that so if you think your cat or dog might eat a dead rat, they don't put poison down. I have a friend whose dog ate rat poison, and they saved him, but only because they realised immediately what he had done, and drove him straight to the vets.

If any animal eats rat poison a shot of vitamin K will put them back on their feet.
