Moles eat ants and grub worms and cinch bugs and so on. Peppermint oil suposedly drives the insects away so the moles won't have anything to eat and they too will go away. Its much cheaper to go to Walmart and get a bag of bug killer to spread on your lawn. As soon as the moles have nothing to eat they will leave. By the way, some folks don't like to use the bug killer because they think it finds it's way to the water table. By the time it gets that far down it has been filtered more than enough not to cause a problem.
