I've been trying to catch this critter for two summers now so I can relocate his little hole diggin ass before I have to kill him. He's dug tunnels all over my front yard. I've filled them up with dirt, flooded them with water. I guess I'll have to go Bill Murray on him and bust out the explosives next.

Hilarious . I've got a mound of dirt in my backyard as a tribute to this little critter (or one of his cousins) and his victory over me in the same struggle!

Do a Bill Murray on him...LOL

Wait until you get some of these:

Pocket Gophers
They'll turn your yard into Swiss Cheese!

Wow, good luck. We have dozens all over our neighborhood. I've learned to live with them, but I agree those holes are annoying. I'd rather have chipmunks than moles!
Actually, sometimes I tease them. I've caught a few in the downspot extensions and then let them go. I've tried to sneak up on a few playing the kids game "red light, green light, 1 2 3". I start walking toward one and stop when he peaks his head up. When he puts his head to the ground to forage, I continue to get closer...

LOL! A friend of mine has moles. He saw the ground moving one day and proceeded to blast the hell out of it with a shot gun.
