Terrible mole problem this fall!! Tried smoking them out, digging them out and just waiting for them to pop out of the ground! Causing some good damage to the lawn. Help!

and honed in on the main tunnel,
carefully set your trap (scissors-type traps are most
effective). Cover the top of the trap with a piece of plywood
or sod to eliminate light or you'll scare the critters away.
Properly set in the main tunnel, your trap should net you a
mole. Empty the trap and reset it as often as necessary to
get all of the moles.

I hope this helps.
