Not to be gross, but here's a photo of a varmit we caught in a mousetrap baited with apple.

After reading the above-linked article, I'm more confused than ever now. And thank you much, Snapple, for posting that link. I had tried to find such info yesterday, with no luck!
I did also buy Mole-Max pelletized castor oil repellent yesterday, and spread it (probably much too heavily) all around the areas where I've seen the tunnels in the mulch.
