Not wasting a daylily picture here. This is a mole hole in my raised bed:

Seems like I can post in the comments section just not under the immediate header. Same trouble everyone else is having. But as of 3 in the PM on Thursday this still isn't fixed..........Maryl

Ouch!How are you treating it?

As luck would have it, we have horrible clay soil. One of the reasons I have so many plants in pots. So while we have mole problems the moles aren't prolific as they are for the people with more sandy soil down the highway. There they even have prairie dog populations to worry about, and of course gophers. We just have a couple of "hard headed" moles that are a pain, but not worth trying to kill. I'm not big on killing things, although my DH would have it differently......Maryl

We have moles here but they don't seem to bother the daylilies much. In our garden, it is the voles you have to watch for.

That's what I've heard. When we had my Yardley (See my avatar picture) on patrol, he caught a couple of the tunneling critters and we were able to confirm our suspicions that they were moles not voles. Voles are a hideous problem. A friend of mine had to dig up all her roses and line the bottoms of the holes with hardware cloth to keep the Voles from eating the roots off. Every plant she planted had to have the hole lined with that stuff. A royal pain and one I don't think I'd even be able to accomplish if I had the mind to in our clay soil............Maryl
