Hi, unfortunately the only way to get rid of Moles is to kill them.you need a Mole trap for this ,you can buy them at some Hardware shops or certainly at SCATTS in Romsey, the trap looks a bit like the tong things ladies use for their hair doos. you will need to look for the Mole run, this is a tunnel a Mole uses between the pile of earth that it throws up on your lawn, if you carefully remove the earth from the pile on your garden left by the Mole you will see a tunnel going in two directions, you place the trap in the hole you have created after setting the spring trap [,You will notice a ring hole in the middle of the trap, as the Mole wriggles through this ring the trap is sprung and the Mole is caught, death is almost instant and the Mole doesn't suffer. ] After you have put the trap in the tunnel you cover it with a flower pot or similar and put earth around it to make it dark in the tunnel.
Check the trap after a couple of hours to see if it has caught Moley. Good luck, you probably have only one Mole as they are very industrious. Malc.
