I definately have moles in my yard and large dead spots; just loose, dry, dirt. Can anyone tell me the best way to get rid of the moles and how to correct the dead areas? I have Bahia grass. I recently tries centipede seed ( 2 months ago), and it really didn’t take off.ThanksSteve

Moles wont harm the grass but they destroy the root bed.They eat the grubs and other type worms in the soil.Use a poison for the moles but be VERY careful for other animals since it is a second stage killer.ie:kills what ever eats the carcuss of the dead animal.Another way is to elimante the food source of the mole and it will move on.Hope this helps.
