After digging pests started at the dacha, I took hold of my head. I did not want to use chemistry on the beds, and it was too expensive and time consuming to set traps around the garden. I decided to withdraw the mole with gas. I bought a smoke bomb Antikrot for a symbolic price. Pack of 5 smoke devices. Placed them in the hole and set fire. After that, I did not see a single mole.So I managed to get rid of the mole in the garden forever. I recommend this method to everyone.
