Audrey, 31, posted the mole-killing videos on her Instagram Stories.

Captioned, "First catch on the farm," the series of recordings shows Jeremy, 32, removing a mole trap with the extinguished vermin caught inside.

Audrey and Jeremy are catching the critters around the four-acre property of their recently purchased $1.5M Oregon farm.

The video then depicts the former LPBW star proceeding to show the dead mole to their young children Ember, four, and Bode, two.

Fans shared images from the Instagram Story on a popular online board where they discussed the "unnecessary" post.

One person wrote: "That story was sad to see."

Another fan responded, writing "I agree. Why would they share this? And let their kids stand there and witness them killing a mole?"

A third concerned commented: "Killing small animals of any kind in front of little kids is not ok. That can be traumatizing to sensitive kids."

Other users related to the sentiment with one person commenting: "I would be traumatized if I saw my dad murder a mole right in front of me and I'm an adult."

Another added: "My dad killed moles like this at our house growing up too. I remember it and I hated it."

One person asked: "Is the trap humane? Some traps for rodents aren’t humane and the animal struggles or is stuck then starve."

A second person answered: "From what I just read, no, they’re not humane because they don’t kill instantly and the animal often suffers."

One chimed in: "I just don’t think it’s the best to have your little kids out there actively participating in pulling a dead one up out of the ground?"

STAVE OFF THE STOVE

Recently, Audrey and Jeremy were slammed for putting a wood-burning stove in their new $750,000 Oregon cabin as critics claim the appliance could be dangerous around their three young kids.

Audrey shared a video of the new stove on her Instagram Stories, writing: "Swapped the gas stove out for wood burning."

The reality star shares three children in total with husband Jeremy, including baby son Radley.

Fans ripped the pair's decision to get a wood-burning stove on a thread.

One wrote: "I understand they're renovating, but this looks like a disaster.

"A wood stove out in the open looks like a big no-no for three small kids."

Audrey and Jeremy bought the “cabin in the woods” in Bend, Oregon, back in September.

HOT TUB COLD RESPONSE

Fans also ripped Audrey for allowing her young kids to play around in the “dangerous” hot tub.

A boomerang clipped saw the TV personality hanging out with Ember and Bode in an outdoor hot tub despite some of the health risks.

The mother and her kids were all smiles as they splashed around and hung out by the tiled ledge.

Upset fans blasted the star for putting her children in a worrisome position.

The original poster wrote with the grab: “Young kids should not be in a hot tub!!”

A second angered user commented: “I have to question what Audrey is thinking here. 

“Hot tubs for children under five are really not recommended because little ones can't regulate their temperatures.”
