“Houston, we have a mole problem.” I said to space-freak hubby. (He loves when I equate any subject to NASA lingo, even if it’s trite.)Aging Gratefully is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.
I hear you. Here we have ants. Who knew they could make piles of dirt on the lawn as big as the ones your moles make. But as far as critters are concerned here in Australia, a snake in the house trumps moles in the lawn. (Hubby left the 'critter' door open, despite my daily nagging)
Fortunately, I don't have a Murray problem. But there's been an effing cricket living under my stove since the start of the year. Google says it can live up to 90 days...or 2 years. FML. And the natural "bowl of molasses" trap didn't work. Neither does turning the oven on to 400. So, I do feel your pain. (Praying it's only 90 days.)

just one question: (ok two in one) WHERE is Pismo Beach and WHY was Bugs bunny trying to get there?

This is a beautifully written tale about some thing I knew nothing about. I feel like I know everything about moles now.
Haha! The life of living in the country! I had no idea, being a city slicker myself. Loved the story. ❤️
