Understanding the Risk
Moles tunnel just beneath the surface hunting earthworms and grubs, leaving raised ridges and volcano-shaped mounds that kill grass, scalps the lawn, and create tripping hazards. A single mole can dig over 100 feet of tunnel per day.
Moles are solitary and rarely surface, so trapping the active tunnels is the only reliable control. Surface repellents and noise devices rarely deter them. Lasting mole control requires pinpointing live runs and trapping the resident animal.
Signs of Infestation
Raised, meandering surface ridges across the lawn where moles tunnel just below the grass.
Volcano-shaped mounds of loose soil pushed up through the turf, usually near deeper tunnel systems.
Patches of dead or uprooted grass along the ridges where roots have been disturbed.
Soft, spongy spots in the lawn that give way underfoot.
Tunnels that reappear within a day or two after being stepped down — a sign of an active mole.
Our Mole Treatment Process
Tunnel Identification
We distinguish active runs from abandoned tunnels by pressing down ridges and re-checking, so traps are set only in live, traveled tunnels.
Precision Trapping
Specialized mole traps are placed in active runs and monitored daily until no new activity appears, removing the resident mole humanely.
Lawn Restoration
Damaged ridges and mounds are assessed for leveling and re-seeding, and grub pressure is evaluated to reduce the food source that drew the mole.
Monitoring & Defense
The property is monitored for fresh tunneling, with rapid re-trapping if a new mole moves into the vacated run.
