Castor Bean plants! I've seen articles where a castor oil spray is
recommended to be applied to the mole holes and tunnels, but here I grow the
plants. They give off some kind of scent that repels the moles. In the
fall you can cut down the plants after the seeds have fallen, and you'll get
plenty of "volunteers" the next year. NOTE: The seeds are poisonous to
humans and pets. The dog doesn't get into them, but if you have small
children around then this isn't the way to go.
