Mole Control

Mole Control for Lawns

Moles frequently invade lawns and gardens in search of worms and other food sources. Rest assured they aren’t damaging your lawn just for fun – rather, they are establishing a set of tunnels in which to trap worms.

Moles dislike noise, vibrations and strong smells. Some people recommend moth balls, but we have had mixed success with this method at best.

How We Get Rid of Moles

Eliminate Food Sources:
Moles primarily eat grubs and earthworms. Reducing these pests in your lawn can make it less appealing to moles. You can use grub control treatments or reduce watering, as dry soil is less attractive to earthworms.

Professional mole catchers are recommended if the situation has got out of control.

Preventing Future Mole Problems

Once the moles have left your lawn, we recommend regular lawn maintenance to prevent them from coming back.

Keeping your grass from getting too long will ensure that you can spot the signs of moles if they return to your lawn. If possible, don’t let your lawn get too soggy as worms (and thus moles) are attracted to wet earth.
