bog standard mk 1 cheapo tunnel trap
this one had me kippered for quite a while but knowledge is power so I read up on the web and was very greedy for oldboy int. moley can detect change in air pressure due to changes in size of tunnel space so i needed to set it in the run tight as a drum, no voids. i'd been blasé before and this was where i'd been going wrong. second key bit of int was to smooth the run you've disturbed down so moley doesn't detect a change in terrain and smell a rat so to speak handle of a spade does the trick. final tip that swung the balance, cover the trap vewy vewy carefuwwy so no light peeps through.
right old mess of the lawn but some diligent mole hill soil removal and re-seeding will have it back to its former, erm, sort of glory.
