Is anyone in here clued up on wildlife?

Are these definitely from moles? If so how in the world do we get rid of them?

Were getting a new one appear every day now, I don't want to hurt them so I'd rather a humane way of getting rid of them.

Unless you have horses or cows there’s no need to get rid as they are a sign of a healthy lawn and a healthy ecosystem?

And who wants to mess that up?

The molehill soil is amazing for seedlings as it’s so fine, so scoop it up, push down the hill and enjoy!

They look like moles. We had them briefly then they went of their own accord after about a week or so.

I'm not sure it's true but invite a gnome and give him everything he wants this normally does the trick, good luck x

Moles, old boys on allotments use the trick of a bamboo canes with plastic bottle on top stuck in the ground as a deterrent.

Look like Moles to me, we had new turf laid as part of a full garden renovation last year. It was perfect for 5 weeks and the mole arrived. Completely ruined it. Tried all the humane ways to get rid of him but in the end we had to dispatch him. We’ve just relaid the turf again with a mesh underneath to stop any new miles coming back.

Try the Mole sonar sounding stake into the ground.. bought from Alton’s garden centre and Google Sork bulbs.. like a scented ball you dig into the ground. I bought from Amazon… I had over 50 mole hills, but no return for 7 weeks so far. Good luck

Beware of the ones with all the flies buzzing around those ones are not from mole's that means you have a large cow infestation!!

I think you need a padded mallet and wait til they pop up and bop them on the head, you have to be fast though they bop up all over the place and shoot back down, see this done loads at the seaside.

It'll be moles. You can bury wine bottles in the ground so far with the tops stuck out. The wind vibrates over the top and the moles dislike the vibration and will move on.
