Your garden looks great but I see a problem.

You have been watering the grass which will bring worms closer to the surface thus attracting the moles. My bet is that your neighbours do not have a mole problem. 

im sick and tired of my grass looking brown............so i have put applications of various fertilizer on it and watered it in..the grass is now 35-40mm high (cut) so it retains moisture rather being short and evapourating as soon as there is a bit of sun............my neighbours have 2 children and their grass is none excistant..............

i WILL put an end to this distruction when i get some decent traps..........

Good luck with the new  putage traps, new ones are not easy to set as the triggers slip on the new metal surfaces, I usually put them in a bucket of water for a few days first rust them up, also did you remember to order a setting tool for them?  good luck and keep us posted, Jim.

Here you go, now sing a long!

I'm not a bat or a rat or a cat,
I'm not a gnu or a kangaroo,
I'm not a goose or a moose on the loose,
I am a mole and I live in a hole.
I'm not a cow or a chow or a sow,
I'm not a snake or a hake or a drake,
I'm not a flea or a wee chimpanzee,
I am a mole and I live in a hole.

Yarg yarg, quarck quarck, fried boiled or roast,
You're the slick chick I dig the most ,
I'm not a ram or a clam or a lamb,
I'm not a hog or a frog or a dog,
I'm not a bus or a hip-potomus,
I am a mole and I live in a hole.

Maybe these traps are like many a fly fishermans Fly Ditchy, in which that they are designed to catch the buyer and not the prey.

I have a good feeling the new traps will come up trumps when they arrive. 🤞

I feel your Moley pain!
