I'm not sure what I got, but last night I had my dog fetch whatever it was
moving in the dark and he caught it. I'm pretty sure its a mole/pocket mole, but never seen them out of there hole and this one was out of his hole. I used Fox Urine in all the holes I could find on my property to try too get ride of it so maybe it irritated him enough to move, but we will never know because he's dead now. I have had some luck with the smoke bombs, but not effective. Going to switch over to the traps next! Let me know if you have any luck.

Bought this beatiful home only to be haunted by a freakin mole! or 2. any help would be appreciated. bill I'm sure there are services to do it but,,, It's going to cost you and this will most certainly not be the last time you will have a mole problem. That said, most any decent hardware store will have mole traps. There are two main types, one is a spear type and the other scissors. They're relatively easy to set up and use but are rather gruesome, yet effective if used properly. Everything else is mostly smoke and mirrors. I have used one product called mole scoot (applies via application with hose) that does seem to chase them off but it's never a long term solution (chases the mole to neighboring properties or untreated areas of same property), until it wears off. Your best bet is to find a source for traps and learn to use them, they're inexpensive, reusable and effective. Naturally you will also want to keep children and pets away from set traps. BTW chances are a service would come out and set traps then return to check them and dispose of the remains. You'd still have to keep children and pets clear. And you'd be paying a premium for their physical presence, (service call) and labor. Don't know enough yet or which hardware store in your area has them? www.Google.com joe |
