Still trapping a few moles..anyone else above the Mason-Dixon line?

yep...got a call today and have had five in the past 2 weeks. I have never gotten calls this time of year for active moles.

Temps are in the low 30's at night but I am starting to get a good many calls on moles as we had a light rain and a few days of 60-70f plus and this really got the moles working on the surface....well, that and it's breeding season.
Anyone, (above the Mason-Dixon) doing a lot of mole work yet?

I actually have had traps in the ground since last November. Not a lot and of course, they were frozen in and snow covered at some point...still set though and actually did catch a few moles when we had some warm spells.

Woke up to a pouring rain...
30 moles today from a (approx) 480 (plus) mole traps.
These were on a 6 day check however.

NICE!!!!

Surely some of you guys have some new mole pic's....
How 'bout it Barkstone...I know you gotta be pilin' 'em up!

Anyone using Talpired this year?

been doing mole jobs up the wazoo but most of the sign is from shrews... just saw the first fresh mole hill for the year 2 days ago. caught one yesterday and one this am. dont have alot of mole traps out. gophers been pushin up dirt on the south facing slopes but very slow coming around the traps. I got 50 of Steves' traps on the way and when they get here gopher trapping ought to be better. WE NEED HEAT!!!!

Here's a weird looking critter, this is a "Mideast Blind Mole Rat". A guy in Israel bought some of my traps and nailed this guy and 20 others just like him in his yard. It has teeth like a gopher, hands sort of like a mole, and is totally blind.

insectivore?

Bob, it's a rodent and a plant eater. Seems like it's pretty similar to a pocket gopher, though not closely related.

where is the turbine and white cane???

Steve, where did that thing come from?
Surely someone imported it, right?
I never heard of such a creature!

Strange critter! Hope we don/t "inherit" any?
bob evans

Not sure I'd want any either....no, wait a minute...maybe I would!

Best week this year : 93 moles

Sure somebody's topped that...where is Barkstone, by the way?

just in case you did not see it on the other page thanks again Steve. now you can put northeast Michigan on your map.

Those eastern moles in Michigan, eh?

just caught one in Indiana... first one. great trap steve. thanks

Thanks for the positive feedback dew and Bud. Glad the traps are working out good for you guys. Trap sales is about half my business right now, and it was only a promising hobby a year ago.

yeah not a problem, just saying how it is. im most likely gonna buy some more mole traps and gopher traps from you as soon as i get some more jobs. thanks
