Euphorbia lathyris - No More Moles The Euphorbia lathyris or Caper Spurge is a popular and very successful method of deterring moles and water voles from your garden or protecting certain areas such as trees or vegetable plots from them. Once planted the Euphorbia lathyris puts certain smells into the soil that is very unpleasant for both moles and voles. It can be planted as a fence around your seed beds or just next to a prized tree or shrub.
The seeds should be planted in a pot and transplanted to their final destination once they start to sprout (or you can leave them to get a bit of height before doing this). Transplanting should take place during the Autumn/Spring months and it likes a part sunny position.
When fully grown the Euphorbia lathyris will grow up to around 1.3-meters and will last for several years.
