#9 Moles are capable of destroying a lawn in a short amount of time and, unfortunately, little can be done to keep them from entering your property,More info:mytenderlawncare

The good news is that once you notice them, they can be eradicated, however it is a continuous process that requires maintenance.

Many people get confused by all the conflicting “advice” on mole control and are willing to try almost anything to get rid of an issue on their property. The fact about moles is they are woodland animals in nature, but they are capable of quickly colonizing – spreading through adjacent residential properties if not handled properly. And, the longer moles are allowed to tunnel, the more difficult they become to control.

Throughout the season, mole activity will come and go… new moles will even move into existing deserted tunnels, making it confusing for homeowners trying to resolve the problem on their own. This here today, gone tomorrow behavior is probably the root of most misconceptions that make home remedies and do-it-yourself pest control products seem credible.

Largemouth bass have a reputation for being unfussy eaters: when minnows and other baitfish are scarce, these freshwater “trash compactors” will scarf anything from insects to frogs and small birds. This scavenged meal, however, was odd enough to surprise even an experienced fisherman.

#5 23rd October, 2018 was… Mole Day,More info:daysoftheyear

Mole Day is celebrated annually on October 23 from 6:02 a.m. to 6:02 p.m. It celebrates Avogadro’s Number (6.02 x 1023), which is a basic measuring unit in chemistry. Mole Day was created as a way to foster interest in chemistry, and schools throughout the United States and around the world celebrate with various activities related to chemistry and/or moles.

For a given molecule, one mole is a mass (in grams) whose number is equal to the atomic mass of the molecule. For example, the water molecule has an atomic mass of 18, therefore one mole of water weighs 18 grams.

An atom of neon has an atomic mass of 20, therefore one mole of neon weighs 20 grams. In general, one mole of any substance contains Avogadro’s Number of molecules or atoms of that substance. This relationship was first discovered by Amadeo Avogadro (1776-1858) and he received credit for this after his death.

#4 Inside the Bizarre Life of the Star-Nosed Mole, World’s Fastest Eater,More info:nationalgeographic

A star-nosed mole is surely one of the world’s weirdest-looking animals. If you were to come face to face with one, you might think its head had been replaced by a tiny octopus.

And for an animal that’s nearly blind, the American species is astonishingly speedy: The world’s fastest eater, it can find and gobble down an insect or worm in a quarter of a second.

As the fuzzy little carnivore plows through soggy soils, it bobs its head in constant motion. In the mole’s dark underground world, sight is useless—instead, it feels a world pulsing with prey. The mole hunts by bopping its star against the soil as quickly as possible; it can touch 10 or 12 different places in a single second.
