Will moth balls keep moles away

I’ve heard old wives’ tales that placing moth balls in your garden can deter moles. Does anyone have experience with this?

I’ve tried it before, but it didn’t seem to have any long-term effects. I think moles just get used to the smell eventually.

You’re right, Nancy. Moth balls can act as a short-term deterrent, but moles will likely adapt. Plus, they’re not the most environmentally friendly solution out there.

Actually, I’ve found that mixing moth balls with other repellents can enhance overall effectiveness. It’s all about creating an unwelcome environment for the moles.

Forget moth balls; they’re toxic to the soils and plants! Better to use natural repellents like castor oil. It works wonders and is safe for your garden.
