May one trap moles and mice in an orchard on Chol Hamoed, and in a vegetable field near an orchard?
Synopsis
Moles and mice may be trapped in an orchard using the normal method (digging a hole and hanging a trap). In a vegetable field adjacent to an orchard, they may also be trapped normally since they damage the trees. In a field not adjacent to an orchard, trapping requires modification (using a stick to make the hole).
