hated by moles and they wil not go close to it. We had a mole this last summer that went right up and around my spurge plant.

I really don`t mind the mole because he or she is eating the miner bees. But then I really don`t dislike the miner bees because they aerate the soil for me. [grin]

Rue,
I'm not sure if I remember hearing or
reading about the moles,
but I do know that the sap or milky
substance from them (like if you
cut it off or snap or maybe even chew)
the roots or stems the substance that
exudes it's self will or can, in some
people, be an irritant.................

done this have entertained angels without realizing it.
