Default Bit of a random wildlife problem

I've seem to have aquired a pet in the back garden in the shape of a mole..

And the bloody thing is ruining my back garden digging underneath the turf and dumping soil on my nice green lawn!

Now i'm not a wildlife hater but is there anything on the market it make it go away, or am i just gonna have to use a spade and sort the visitor out manually..

You can get those ultrasonic things that's supposed to scare them off. Dunno if they work or not!

Put one of those birthday cards that make a noise in the hole. Or go to your local Farm hardware shop and buy a mole trap.

a pitch fork works a treat just look for the fresh mound wait for it to move then fork it as hard as you can & leave fork in ground just incase its a flesh wound he will starve that way

Think the pitch fork is sounding the best idea so far.....

Pissing me off really as when we moved in the lawn was like a deserted field........Full of weeds, dead grass + Dandelions!

It's took me nearly a year to kill off the weeds to make it look quite repectable, and i'm not letting this little fucker ruin my hard work!
