Do the crystals that kill the grubs and worms work, meaning if I kill the food source in theory the moles should move on. Anyone have any experience with this, or should i just try to kill the moles?

If you kill the total food supply you will not have grass in a few years. I agree with WIGGLER it is much easier to work a few extra hours at your regular and hire a ADC person to take care of your problem. To Old U.S. Army 60-63 SGT.

Wiggler, that would be a bit of a drive, dont know if I want to pay that milage. I figured that is what it was going to come down to, hiring someone that is.

Moles will always have a food source with or without grub control. Chemical control only works on a percentage of the immature grubs and that is determined by the kind you use and how diligent you are in the application and watering of your lawn to facilitate the action of the product.In other words if you want mole control you need to trap or hire an experienced trapper to help you. www.jamesonsultrablend.com www.wildlifepestcontrolservices.com
