re: Moles in my yard. Any recommendations??

I remember many years ago there was a funny "mole" post on a message board - may have been this one.

Anyway, a guy from out west somewhere moved to Louisiana. As he was still in the process of moving into the house it rained for a couple days in a row. He wound up on the message board freaking out because of all the moles there were in Louisiana. He had seen or heard of them where he was from but was totally freaked out by the crazy experience he was having in Louisiana.

He gets advice from other posters on the board but figured the task was way too big and daunting for him to handle personally. He called an exterminator who said he was able to come by in a couple days to give an estimate and hopefully start eradicating the varmints.

When they arrived the two exterminator guys asked him to show them where he had seen evidence of the moles. He immediately thought they were freakin crazy, drunk or possibly blind. He started walking around his yard pointing out all of the mole holes.

He wound up getting very pissed off because they just busted out laughing. He ordered them off his property. They left still laughing, and as they were getting into the truck the younger tole him, "Mister you don't have moles those are crawfish holes." That really freaked the guy out, not knowing what a crawfish was at the time, he had to go to the neighbors to find out what a crawfish was and said they couldn't stop laughing either.
