John - I had pretty good luck with this device until the battery went dead.  I was trying to protect one vulnerable plant so I can't say what its range is.

I just found a special type of trap on the net.It is a harpoon trap that allows you to catch the moles in their shallow hunting tunnels and so doubling(at least) your chances.
Unfortunately I found no supplier in Europe.
Has anybody any experience with this type of trap?
Please have a look at  www.themoleman.com/control.htm

Thanks for the Jasper Carrot link David. I hadn't met him before. People running from all over the house to see what the roars of laughter are about. Insurance claims. ;D ;D ;D

I though this was going to be a link to a cover by JC of the wonderful song the Manchester Molecatcher by the Phenomenal BW Wrigley...it wasn't, but I enjoyed it anyway!

There are certain advantages with living in a cold climate where the weather freezes out any attempts by moles and rabbits to colonise...

Your immigrating services refuse visas for people older than 45!!!!!!!!

That can't be right. Anthony Darby just came here and he is in his late fifties. He has been granted permanent residence, with family and dog.
