This year our garden was growing beautifully. Than the ants and moles moved in and the garden was taken over. How do we safely get rid of these critters and still have it safe to eat the vegies and be safe for our own pets? We enjoy having a garden and would like to rip our own rewards not pass them off to the critters.

The moles probably did the most damage. The ants would only take advantage of previous damage to feed their growing colony.

ANTS? Easy, Safe Solution!
packaged cornbread mix that says it is sweetened and put it where they are coming in if you can find it, or even on your counter in a small lid. They will take it to the mound, everyone will eat it and die, they can't digest the cornmeal, but will take it because it is sweetened. Little goes a long way.
