Crossword Genius

Spot unwanted garden visitor (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mole

This clue is a double definition.

'spot' is the first definition.
(spot or blemish on the skin)

'unwanted garden visitor' is the second definition.
(moles may damage or dig up a garden)

(Other definitions for mole that I've seen before include "A spy within an organisation" , "Tunneller" , "Infiltrator" , "one in the Underworld?" , "Skin blemish and burrowing animal" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Telegraph.
