This was suggested to me by my local nursery. I didn't have plans to dig up my entire lawn but if I was putting in a new lawn I would definitely consider doing it. Galvanized wire mesh shouldn't rust for a long time. I still have my ongoing battle and found traps to be the best. I have tried the bates poisons, gases, and repellents, My cat and the traps have been the only things even moderately effective. The other thing I thought helped, if you have a dog, put your dog waste (feces) down the open gofer holes before you back fill them. Kind of killed to birds with one stone. My gardener said it wouldn't work but I didn't have any gofers for quite a long time after I did it. http://viagen.com/ http://www.cyagra.com/ I also have a mole/gofer problem.

We live in CA and have inherited the neighbors mole. Our dog finally got one, but short of that, there is a spray that you can use that drives the moles away. Mix one-cup of Murphy's Oil Soap with one ounce of castor oil and a quarter cup cayenne pepper. Mix these three ingredients with water to make a two to one mixture. Use a garden sprayer and spray the area where the mole travels. You can also pour this mixture into the mole's tunnel. Be careful when working with this homemade mole killer.
