Moles Beware

Moles beware

For years we have struggled with moles – at times our back garden has looked like a lunar landscape rather than a beautiful, clover and dandelion infested green lawn. Planting spring bulbs has been rather a philanthropic affair; many of them just vanished underground, never to be seen again, whilst carefully planted daffodils could emerge six months later, metres away and confused amongst the tulips. But now it’s pay-back time: the digger has moved in.
