You're in Alabama and didn't use the Redneck Method on moles/burrowers?
Heck, we even have the unit here at home, which hasn't been used in forever, since I think the neighbors' cats take care of the moles. And I'm much too lazy to take a pic of it.
It's an old lawnmower with the muffler/exhaust replaced by a flexible metal hose (gas line for a stove, maybe?). Fire it up, and shove the hose down the holes.
Joseph Mengele approves of this method.

I wouldn't want anything to go wrong, old buddy. You should test it first in your garage...with the doors closed...and you inside.

Just speculating, but your modern vehicle probably doesn't produce a whole lot in the way of CO. Old lawnmowers sure do.
I'm guessing with a newer vehicle, one would have to run the engine in a closed garage quite a while longer to do oneself in compared to the Old Days. Try it, and report back.

I had some of these when I first moved in. Haven't seen them since. Make sure you get the nymphs. No---not nymphos you pervs.
My last big battle, besides the ongoing war with fire ants, was ground termites. Haven't seen them in a while either. The Bayer products
work pretty good.

I had a neighbor who had these little windmill dealios he put in the ground. Real faggy looking. Kind of like big flowers. One day my black lab ran over to his yard and chewed a few up. I apologized and told him, I'd buy new ones. While I was talking to him, I had to ask just why the hell he had them, as he didn't appear gay. He said "moles". The fukking things vibrate when the wind spins them. Drives the moles batshit crazy. I suppose that I why I had a shit ton of moles. They all bailed from his yard. I bought a few for myself and sure enough, they did work.

Smack,
Yep. Hammering a 2 foot board into the ground deep and firm, and then ya rub a brick over the top to make the vibration. It does drive the moles away.......for about a day. So ya have to rub that bastard like 10 times a day for a month for them to get the message.
Oh, and it also drives earth worms to the surface, if you like bream or crappie fishing, etc.
As far as he mole crickets......they live in Florida everywhere. Never really bothered me. They don't bite but have those digging legs that are lightly scratchy if you pick one up. There is a good pesticide that looks almost like chain saw wood shavings. Scott's may make it. Not too expensive either. You just broadcast it all over your yard and water it in. Ants, spiders, crickets, Oregon fans, etc., bite the dust quickly.

Are you serious, Clark? Is it true that if ya get a wound that goes septic, you wrap alfalfa in your hand, have your girl pee on it, and the infections goes away? Got any elixer or tonic "fer sale that cures the gout? Gramps wanted to know.

rog,
that's what is nice about the faggy pinwheel things. so long as there is a breeze, they spin. probably not as much fun as rubbing a stick with a brick though.
