Battle of the Mole - Day 3

Fact #1.Moles do not own scuba equipmentFact
#2.Moles do, however, laugh.

As day three commences, I walk barefoot out onto the battlefield to inspect the integrity of the ground. If any of you have dealt with this enemy before, you will know that the mole's subterranean travelling weakens the ground, uproots grass, and displaces dirt. If, by chance, you cannot see where the mole has traveled, you can find it by placing pressure upon the ground and if it sinks beneath your foot - Bingo.At what first seemed like a successful combination of tunnel demolition and drowning, I have only come to discover that instead of choosing to stay and die, the moles have done what I simply could not and had not expected: They moved.The effects of this migration remain unknown.The upside?They are moving towards the neighbor's fence.The downside is if I fail to herd them properly I will only succeed in managing to spread the destruction of the battlefield to include the ENTIRE backyard.Time to think and regroup.
Moles: 1pt
Me: to be determined
