Understanding Mole Problems

Signs You Have A Mole Problem

1
Molehills
Fresh piles of excavated soil appearing in lawns, fields, or garden areas, often in lines following underground tunnels.
2
Surface Tunnels
Raised ridges of soil or disturbed areas where tunnels run just below the surface, damaging grass roots.
3
Lawn Damage
Areas of dying grass or unstable ground caused by extensive tunneling beneath the surface.

Why Professional Control Matters

Garden Preservation
Mole activity can quickly damage lawns, flower beds, and vegetable gardens, undermining plants and creating hazardous uneven surfaces.
Structural Concerns
Extensive tunneling near foundations, drainage systems, or paved areas can potentially cause subsidence or damage to these structures over time.
Why DIY Methods Often Fail
Many DIY mole deterrents, including sonic devices and repellents, have limited effectiveness as moles quickly adapt to them. Home trapping requires specific knowledge of mole behavior and tunnel systems to properly place traps where moles are actively feeding, not just traveling.
How Our Professionals Make the Difference
Our specialists understand mole behavior and can identify active tunnels from abandoned ones. We use targeted, humane control methods based on the specific terrain and extent of activity, providing more consistent results than DIY approaches while minimizing disruption to your garden.

Mole Control: Frequently Asked Questions

Dealing with mole problems raises many concerns for property owners. Here are answers to the most common questions we receive about our rat control services.

Initial results are typically seen within 3-7 days, but complete management may take 2-3 weeks depending on the extent of activity and size of your property.

Yes, we follow industry best practices and comply with all wildlife legislation. Our methods are designed to be as humane as possible while effectively managing the problem.

While we can effectively manage current mole activity, new moles may move into vacant territory from surrounding areas. We can provide ongoing management programs for properties with persistent mole pressure.

No, chemical treatments for moles are no longer legal in the UK. We use approved physical control methods that are both legal and effective.

Relocation of moles is generally not practical or humane as they are territorial animals that struggle to establish in new areas. Additionally, this would simply transfer the problem to another location.
