Marshmallow killing moles

[milkloss]

do they choke on them or what?

They die either from heart disease which is exacerbated because of the gum disease brought on by the high sugar diet or just diabetes I guess.

Marshmallows don't kill moles.

We had zero success...

Looks like some weird fertility charm.

Then again @Kevtherev and @REStracTORATION have altered my perception of what folk will post on the internet...

Anybody fancy a bit of mole catching in N.Lincs?

Traps, marshmallows, 'other substances', twelve bore 'special loads' - anything you like

Our mole man has retired and I'm short of time to do 'em myself.

Have you read through the 'best mole trap recommendations' thread?

Thank you for the article, don't know if anyone has tried it to prove or disprove it but I know I will first thing in the morning, I am beyond sick and tired of those gophers eating all my plants and trees no sooner do I just put one in the ground and within 24 hrs they have killed it,

You trying to kill gophers or moles?

Persistence is the key.

For the last 10 days I’ve had a mole persistently filling the traps.At one point I’d got 10 laid in one area but this morning I went around after missing yesterday and in that area I had 3.

Obviously they had all been on the same trap avoidance course but their luck ran out.

Yeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaa!

Which one are you @milkloss ?

I believe you, I honestly believe they are getting some type of kick back from the corporations that sell us all the useless but very costly falsely advertised poisons and contraptions. I have spent more on replacing or trying to replace my plants trees and vegetable gardens than I hate to even admit. Lets not even add the cost,on trying everything under the sun trying to solve the problem. The gophers seem as though they enjoy taunting me by coming back for revenge with their whole gang and I swear they really like the poisons

Gophers and moles I have both but I believe its the gophers that eat all my plants at least that's what ive been told

Do you know of anyone who has actually tried the marshmallow tactic and succeeded or failed?

That news really sucks. I expected it but really wished I was wrong. I just dont know what else to do. I LOVE my gardening and the only option left is to give it up and,let those vermin win.

Yours or the gfs?
