curly tomatoe leaves and moles

Having trouble with a mole(s) in my vedgie patch. Here on the Isle of Wight, I recorded no rain in May and only 30 m/m in June. Actually, just over 200 m/m in the last 7 months. Consequently, lots of watering. This has attracted a mole, or moles who run down the lines of seeds in search of worms attracted by the water. Carnage, and various traps have not worked. They leave no hills at all, just raised runs. The tomatoes have all got curly leaves and not looking their best. Could this be over watering or just reaction to the moles? (or lack of water?)

I have nipped up and taken this photo, hope it works...

 

What a rotten shame about the tomato plants. Have you tryed a mole scarer? its basically a virating shell you push in their tunnel. Moles don't like noise and go off to get away from it. I've got one and it has worked really well.

 

Well a mixture, Marmens, cherry,and some French seed we brought back,,,(shhh!!) they all seem to have curly leaf and rather thick stems. I did pile on the horse manure over the winter...

 

Curly leaves on toms is a perennial problem.

In short it happens every year, and has nothing to do with moles, it just means they are doing well as far as I'm concerned.

 

I agree, ignore the curly leaves ...
