It worked. I also used fresh apple to catch rats. Moles in my area have       no eyes and don't need to be on the surface. They remain, mostly,       underground. The English scissors trap I am using.... buried , hasn't worked       with my past placement efforts. I will continue in the hunt. Maybe I will       put peanut butter on it....maybe that will work although my understanding is       that moles eat worms and the like that live in the ground. Maybe a worm tied       to the trap will work....have you heard about a worm that was fit to be       tied?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
