Show Us Your Lawn

[TN94z]

Getting my lawn under control has been on my to-do list every year. I always tell myself that I am going to get on a schedule for pre-emergent, fertilizer, etc..., but I never do. Last year I built a shop that tore up my side yard. It is still torn up because I have to rip up all of my old concrete around my pool and replace it. I didn't want to fix the side yard until that was done. The last 2 years, moles have destroyed it. I have got to get rid of those guys..

Just invite the moles out to a bar for a drink. Sit together within 6 ft, don't wear masks and arrive with the virus on your dirty hands.

That's how I have been trying to get rid of them..lol

Funny story on the mole hunting. My daughter and I were walking through the yard one day moving the water hose. Emma says "look daddy, there is a mole tunnel."  It was a hole in my sod by the pool, which frustrated me. In a fit of rage, I jammed the water hose into the tunnel and said "how about a nice cool drink, varments" as I was playing out my Caddyshack role. I let it run for a few seconds and started to walk off. Them Emma says, "Daddy, there he is!" I said, "no, that's just the dirt from the hole that was dug." She said, "No, it's moving." I looked and sure enough, the mole was trying to come out of the tunnel. I guess the hose had sprayed him right in the face. I dug him out and disposed of him.  It was pretty funny because I never in a million years expected the water hose to work.

We had a vole under our outside shower at my cottage. I could see the tunnel going to my neighbors yard. But then we had some landscaping done and he’s gone.
