I curse the creatures who steal from my garden and spoil my hard work.
And then...
I get them face to face and turn all mushy.
First a woodchuck.
Now a mole.
Only this time, the "sweet little thing" turned out to be vicious.
I was never more thankful for having fabric between myself and a creature before. Don't let that face fool you....Moles sure can BITE!

Ouch!
We're in the midst of racoons and a coyote going after apples at the moment. (We can't eat the apples)
What a cute picture of such a destructive little bugger! My hubby would NOT LIKE THIS PICTURE!!! ;) Our yard is one giant pit from these fellows! :)
Just talking with a relative the other day about moles! Supposedly a stick (not chewed!) of Juicy Fruit Gum down in the hole, (then cover it back up)will "gum up their insides". I don't know if it works, but cheap enough to give it a try! They really are quite cute, though! My cat catches and kills the ones we have.
=^..^=
Yikes. Do you have to get a rabies shot from mole bites?
No worries Hollace~ it didn't bite ME. It bit the towel I was holding it with, with such a vengeance that it would dangle upside down as I held the towel. When it let go, it met its demise.
I will think twice about scooping up moles next time.
First woodchucks, now moles ??
Someday not IF, WHEN you post picture of a mouse please put a warning for your readership that are squicked out by them so they can skip it. I am begging, not above that :)
