Yard Moles

Recommended Posts

Anyone ever had issues with them?

 

I finally get my yard close to the way a yard is supposed to look after buying the house a couple years ago, and now I have freaking moles destroying it.

 

Tried poison worms, bait, and a local landscaper to spray to get rid of grubs....nothing.  Just ordered some traps, just didn't know if anyone had ever dealt with them.

i need to get a cat or two to take care of the rodents around here. we've got a lot of land and you'd think they'd be happy in the woods, but no....they like the grassed areas around the house. rodents bring snakes and snakes make for an unhappy wife.

we've also got a ground hog that's getting into my garden and eating my cabbage and broccoli and started eating my younf sunflowers. it's only a matter of time before it gets into my squash and zucchini and will be an even bigger pain when the beans and watermelons start producing. today i'm gonna get my shotgun out and camp outside the one hole i know it uses. this is the first year the deer have stayed out of my garden. i'm not going to lose my food to that big rodent anymore.

I had considered getting a cat and letting it handle it.  Just got the traps Saturday, and plan on putting them out this week.  Need to mow really close first so I can see the fresh runs.

    • Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.  
    • Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO. 
    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
