Daily Home Renovation Tips每日家裝修秘訣

Sounds like an episode out of a Flash Gordon movie series, doesn’t it?聽起來像是一輯出的Flash戈登的電影系列，不是嗎？ Perhaps I should say ‘Houston, we have a problem’?也許我應該說'休斯敦，我們有一個問題'嗎？

OK, OK, it’s not life threatening for three courageous astronauts.確定，確定，這不是威脅生命的三個勇敢的宇航員。 But, oh, our beautiful back yard!但是，哦，我們美麗的後院！

This is the first spring in our current home.這是第一個春天，在我們目前的家。 We moved in last summer.我們提出在去年夏天。 Our home is situated on a ravine which means that our back yard backs onto a forest.我們的家坐落在一個山溝這意味著我們的後院，背到一個森林。 Here is the view in the winter.這裡是認為，在冬季。

Last year we had two situations before we installed the chain link fence (to enclose the back yard for our dog) where parts of the grass was dug up.去年我們曾在兩種情況下，才安裝了鏈環，圍欄（附上回碼為我們的狗）凡部分基層被挖出。

We thought it must have been raccoons.我們認為它必須是被浣熊。 And, once the fence was put up it in the very late fall it did not happen again. ，一旦圍欄是把它在很遲才屬於它沒有再次發生。

However, it has now happened three times in the past 2 weeks.不過，它現在已發生了3倍，在過去2週。

Here is what someone or something has done to our back yard.這裡是什麼人或事物做了我們的後院。

John, my father in-law said that it must be moles.約翰，我的父親在法說，它必須痣。 We had never heard about it.我們從未聽說過它。 I imagine moles to have been like gophers which make holes in the ground.我猜想痣已像gophers ，使孔在地面上。 There were no holes.有沒有漏洞。

However, sure enough.不過，肯定不夠的。 I went to a store near us and then confirmed that it was likely moles.我去商店附近的我們，然後證實，它可能是痣。 A customer over heard me talking to the sales lady said that he had heard that mole problems were worse this year than in many past years.客戶超過聽到我說話，以銷售夫人表示，他曾聽到摩爾的問題，更糟的這一年，比在許多過去幾年。

The sales lady (as did Cath) said that the moles were likely looking and finding chinch bugs.銷售夫人（像貓）說，該痣有可能尋找和發現chinch臭蟲。 July is when the lawn care people can use their application to kill the chinch bugs larvae. 7月的時候，草坪護理的人可以使用他們的應用要殺死chinch臭蟲幼蟲。 However, we moved into the house in August so were too late.不過，我們搬進房子在8月，因此為時已晚。 And, yes, last fall the lawn care firm we use did show us chinch bugs in our lawn.和，不錯，去年秋天，草坪護理公司，我們使用沒有向我們顯示chinch臭蟲在我們的草坪。

Now, I don’t want to kill the moles (unless that is the only way).現在，我不想殺死痣（除非是唯一的出路） 。 But, oh my beautiful lawn.但是，哦，我美麗的草坪。

There was a few products which were power like substances which would discourage moles.有少數產品，其中電源類物質會勸阻痣。 But we have a large back yard for such a solution.但我們有一個大的後院為這樣一種解決辦法。

Then I came across a product I had never come across previously (likely because I had never encountered a mole problem before).然後我碰到的產物，我從來沒有碰到以前（可能是因為我從來沒有遇到一個問題之前，摩爾） 。

Return tomorrow to see what the product is and how we are using it.返回明天，看看有什麼產品，以及我們如何使用它。 To continue with the next article in this series, simply select this link to繼續與下篇文章在這一系列，只需選擇此鏈接 Part 2第2部分 . 。
