for trapping moles we use a loop type that gets

are not easy to set (must be at the proper depth
and on a regular run). you need some hand strength
too.

I was looking for something simpler -- like filling a hole
with some toxic substance and waiting for them to
traipse through it.

however, once you've found a run they use you can
usually trap them within a day or two (they eat
several times a day and so must travel their tunnels
looking for food).

if you are into tanning hides moles have the most
remarkably soft fur.
