家园 什么口香糖?

家园 真心感谢你啊. 这个我家都有俩啦

先是六月底买了这个ULTRASONIC MOLESCHASER; 插地上一个月了, 开始仿佛安静过一两星期. 差点儿让我以为真管用了呢.

前不久在HD看到你说的这个, 太阳能的, 绝望得又拎了一个回来. 它们不是号称一个就可以保护7000~9000尺的地么? 我总共才三百来尺的菜地,给它插了俩! 看看, 这待遇!

家园 富有生活情趣?

看你烧的菜,你拍的照,你才是个富有生活情趣的人呢.

我的确是很享受收拾这些DD. 新近又给院子添一小鱼缸,养了俩小KOI.给它们"装修"新家折腾掉我不少时间--- 买小睡莲给它们遮荫, 添淡水螺,蛤蜊让它们有伴,还去找一些小零碎给它们当玩具..... 活象添了俩孩子.

有人不止一次风言风语了:"看你那忙活样, 我总算明白为啥前屋主的LP非要逼他卖房子, 搬去没院子的TOWN HOME了!" ( 前屋主的LP跟我说,烦她老公业余时间都花在院子里,不陪她和孩子. 因此决定卖屋). 你说我这么"富有生活情趣"的人咋就老遇人不淑捏???

家园 我那个时候种的都是很容易的东西

青菜,玉米,蓖麻,冬瓜,大蒜,胡萝卜,丝瓜,黄瓜,芝麻。其实也就是帮着松松土,浇浇水而已。

难种的象番茄、草莓什么的,我们家从来没尝试过。五六月间,有点阳光不足、下雨什么的,番茄就会长僵掉,再也不变红了。看到在美国别人种番茄,起先还以为很难的,后来才知道客观环境不一样的。

家园 no idea

这个要问东湖, 他有经验

我就免了. 想着要抓老鼠就毛骨竦然.

家园 好像有刀光血影

火烧赤壁?水淹七军?

家园 同悲同悲

估计你家的鼹鼠是MOLES. 我家的是GOPHER. 差别在于你家的爱吃茎叶果, 我家的通常呆在底下,吃根,吃土里的虫子.

唉, 这三个月来我可是能研究的都研究了. 因为种菜,不敢下毒, 连毒气也不敢放. 且心中还是念着老鼠也不容易. 只要把它们赶走我就满足了.

研究的结论, 基本上我可以跟你家领导做如下分享:

1, 善用你家的猫( 猫其实或许还挺喜欢这个益智游戏的)是最佳解决方案. 舍不得猫就要舍得瓜, 就是这么个非辩证关系.

2, 所有的市面上有售的MOLES, GOPHERS的药引子都是差不多的无效;

3, 那些个FANCY的东西,什么太阳能啊,什么超音波MOLESCHASER啊, 基本上也可以归入无效类.

4, 勉强算是有些效果的是一种号称对蔬菜无害的粉末型REPELLENT. 洒在根部周围,鼹鼠讨厌那味道, 那瓜就暂时保住了. 但千万别相信包装上说洒一次管三个月. 骗子! 这三个月我都用了整整三桶了.还是有那么多菜遇害. 我分析了一下哈. 关键是我们每天都会浇水, 可能就把那粉末味道给稀释了. 因此要记得常常洒. 不幸的是, 最近去HD被告知不卖了. 晕死. 很怀疑HD跟鼹鼠有亲戚关系. 什么管用什么就停售!

5, 最近看了一篇DD, 云最有效方法为: 找到ACTIVE的鼠通道,放入一至两片水果味的口香糖( 注意: 千万不能用手碰到, 鼹鼠嗅觉特别灵敏, 一旦闻到人味儿就不肯吃了). 吃下口香糖后,鼹鼠大概死不了, 但会一门心思琢磨着搬家了.

然, 此方案本人目前正在实践中, 尚未最后证实. 请耐心等待我的总结报告.

最后请替我HUG一下你家LD. 号召她向我学习. 咱家的黄瓜都让鼹鼠整死了三批了. 咱不还英勇地战斗在第一线么.咱们一定要坚强哈! 有朝一日要实现--- 有我没有它!!!

家园 以前捷克动画片里的鼹鼠还是很可爱的

咳咳

家园 没种呢

搬家了两次,现在的没有凉台,只好梦想了。

有得吃,还怕鼠患啊。好像原来见到过谁的帖子,可以在什么地方买到北极狼的尿(固体的?),那些小动物们就会避而远之了。

家园 鼹鼠没吃过

大白鼠倒是吃过,做实验用的,500克左右一只,剥其皮、去其脏腑,洗巴干净,送到饭馆,辣炒,味道很不错呢

家园 找东湖掂着枪到后院猎鼹鼠吧,回头还能写个攻略什么的。
家园 看来只有请东湖兄帮忙了

在网上搜到一篇文章,笑死了.

我们家房前屋后有金花鼠打洞玩闹,采花啃草。我也用过毒气弹, 没有用。 后来就什么恶心就随手往洞里灌什么。开始是换洞口,后来金花鼠不胜其扰搬家了。 LD 宣称最后是她的bakingsoda起的作用。

Kill a Gopher

PoorBest

Wednesday, 05 April 2006

I woke up one morning, looked in my backyard and found 3 or four holes on our hill. They could have only been made by one thing. A Gopher. Being a new home owner I have never had to get rid of a gopher before, but how hard could it be? Its just a rodent right?

1st Attempt at Gopher removal

We have seen it in the movies, so of course my first attempt was to get the hose. I shoved it down one of the holes, turned on the water and waited... and waited... and waited... thirty minutes went by, and the water never came back out the hole!

Gopher 1 Me 0

2nd Attempt.

I saw him today! He was pushing out dirt of a new hole. Of course as soon as I opened the back door he was gone. I tried the water hose trick again... nothing.

Gopher 2 Me 0

I ran to the local giant hardware warehouse store and asked for some help. What I walked out with was a gopher trap that you basically stuffed down one of him holes. Sounded too easy to be true! That afternoon I set the trap up in the new hole thinking he would return to finish what he started.

Three days later, no gopher and one more new hole. I am starting to think of just piping propane into the varmints home and lighting him on fire! That trap was a complete waste of money. Where is Carl Spackler (Bill Murrey) when you need him?

Gopher 3 Me 0

3rd Attempt.

Second trip to that Home Warehouse store. This time, I am not talking to some "Gardening Expert", I think I have more knowledge now then these employees. Poisons? He is too smart for that. Traps? I laughed when I saw those. Whats this? Hidden down on the bottom shelf I found it! This is it, he is a goner now! Poison Gas! Simply light it, shove it in a hole and cover it up! Pure Genius!

I get home, and don't even acknowledge my wife or kids. My White Whale is waiting for me, I can see him just taunting me in caves. It came with 4 sticks which was perfect since I have found 4 holes from Moby (Yes, Ive named my nemesis). After using the first one when i uncovered the other holes smoke would pour out. I would light the next one, shove it in and bury it back up. Finally! This was it!

Gopher 3 Me 1

Three days later in the early morning I was staring out into my garden. Moby's damage was still visible, but over time the garden would cover it back up. At that moment my body twitched when out of the corner of my eye I saw the impossible, it was the first time I saw Moby's face. That rodent survived and hes ripping the leaves off of one of my plants.

Correction!

Gopher 4 Me 0

Time to end this right now. Out in the garage was my friends BB / Pellet gun. I figured that I would need a pellet for this varmint, but I didn't have time to search for the pellets. I walked out to the garage, found the bb gun and made sure there was a BB in the chamber, and did a quick 6 pumps of pressure. Walking around the house I knew I had to be quiet, since the last time I saw him he darted when I made noise. Slowly I stalked my pray as he collected soft new leaves for a nest. From far away I lined up the sights with his head. When I was in range he suddenly dove back in his hole. Was that it? Did he hear or see me and now my chance is gone? I just waited there, silent and still. In an instant Moby appeared again as I slowly pulled the trigger.

In a flash Moby disappeared again! Did I miss? Did it just piss him off? What happen? I knew I should I looked for the pellets! I walked closer up to the hole with no sign of Moby. Damn Verment! I glanced down and noticed on the side of the hole was a deep red color. It was hit! Looking deeper inside the hole, there laying still was Moby. Eyes open, he was dead. I poked him with a stick to confirm, and then moved a handful of dirt over his hole. My white whale lost.

F'ricking varmint!

Gopher 4 Me 1 I WON!

家园 易容了俺们也认识你啊^_^
家园 俺们这美国老太太的土方是用汽车尾气灌

找到小动物的洞,用管子接到汽车尾喷管上,然后另一头接到洞口,发动汽车,记着封死其它的洞口

家园 这招狠
