Natural Mole Repellents
There are alternative mole control methods to get rid of mole animals. Sometimes mole control
involves nothing more than a little encouragement to move elsewhere. Using natural mole repellents
may be just the thing to get rid of mole animals. Not only is this option safer for the environment
(as well as pets and children) but it’s also better for the moles. Rather than killing them, natural
repellents simply keep them at bay.
Natural mole repellent can be as simple as planting vegetative barriers throughout the area that
deter moles. These include plants like daffodils, marigolds, alliums, and fritillarias, mole plant and
castor beans. Although mole plant and castor bean plant (which contains castor oil, a well-known
mole deterrent) can be used to repel moles, both plants are considered poisonous and should
be avoided around pests and children. Alternatively, there are repellents containing castor oil
that can be used instead.

When all is done that is asked from me and I can fly no higher, I pray this day his hand extends to welcome home a flier.

I read some of these and disagree with quite a bit.

You never give anyone suffereing from heat stroke anything by mouth as they may aspirate and develop aspiration  pneumonia.

The staging of the alzheimers was all wrong and we do know what causes it - plaque formations.

And you should never screw around with someone having an asthma attack. They need a rescue inhaler or neb treatment immediately - albuterol....duoneb...etc. 

Some of this is OK...like head lice treatment, but anytime you are in a potentially life threatening emergency, seek medical help.

I agree that the serious stuff has to be dealt with properly, it's the annoying stuff like lice and fleas that have an alternate remedy that interest me :)
