I wonder if the moth balls would work on gopher turtles to run them off.  We 
have some making holes in our pastures and can cause serious harm to horse legs 
when they step in them.  Most of them have been on our neighbors side of the 
fence but I saw one on ours in a aisle way on our side.  They are protected so 
I can exaxctly take a weapon to them but their homes are so dangerous.

  Mothballs are a good secret weapon.

  Couple of years ago a woodchuck was giving me grief.
  Didn't want to kill him, just wanted him to move on.

  I was real surprised that a few mothballs thrown in his burrow made
  him disappear overnight.
