"Probably one of the most comprehensive books ever written on mole trapping." The author stresses the need for "humane and traditional methods that have been proven to work effectively" and discusses "the natural history of the mole ...its characteristics and behaviour, ...traditional and humane methods he uses in different terrain and weather conditions, [and] how to locate mole runs." The author describes all current types of traps and explains how to set them effectively.
