Name: greene Savannah, GA (Sunset 28) (Zone 8b) I have no use for internet bullies!
I agree - flatten everything. Do you have a lawn roller? That would make the job easier. Then check first thing in the morning for new tunnels. (I let my dog do that part of the job.) I agree that baiting with poison will do more harm than good as the dead mole becomes food for other animals. Better to use the spike traps.
Some say moles are deterred by vibration.One of my neighbors had good luck by using lots of pretty plastic pinwheels. She covered her lawn with the with pinwheels and the vibration made the moles move on to the next property. Others have used a metal pole (such as re-bar) with a glass bottle to cause vibration.
