I had excellent luck with these: https://www.traplineproducts.com/  .  The only drawback is you can't tell if you have caught one without digging the trap up.

This year this is my new weapon: https://www.amazon.com/Gopherhawk-Trapping-Wedge-Probe-Tool/dp/B00KXE6RKK/ref=sr_1_17?keywords=mole+trap&qid=1553801536&s=gateway&sr=8-17

I have not seen one for a long time, but hardware stores used to sell big smoke bombs to shove in the hole(s).  Being Washington I am guessing that is against the law as well.  If they are legal, I sorry for bring it to the attention of Sideshow Bob, and Zero Chance President Jay.

Most the traps for sale at your friendly hardware store are illegal in Washington. When they start fining the stores for selling illegal traps maybe then I will worry about those poor endangered abused moles.

Not talking about individuals, talking about WCOs advertising and doing it for a business.

The only down side is on the west side you may end up with a backyard full of people with glasses of wine and Brie Cheese.

It's completely legal to own them and sell them, just not legal to use them.
I am sure Sideshow Bob would get interested if they were black and had a bayonet lug.

I was really hoping he was going to light the acetylene from his calcium carbide. There are those propane blasters where you fill the tunnels with gas then light and lift the turf off your yard.
