I purchased some of the mole spikes, the ones that take 4 U2 battery's and look more at home in an Anne Summers catalouge, I am told

I was very sceptical about the effectiveness of them, however they actually do work. The battery's last almost a year, the only problem I could see using them in a small garden, where to drive the moles too.
I have 6 running right now, in a line at the base of a hedge bordering the formal lawn. Placed about 25yards apart, the moles stay their side of the hedge and the lawn stay's pristine.

I don't believe it! I applied round up and found three moles and dead with in days of spraying
