Contact UsMoles are small burrowing insectivores that live underground, digging a system of tunnels in search of food. While moles do help to control insects in your yard, they also can wreak havoc on a perfectly beautiful lawn. Here are some facts about moles:
A 5-ounce mole will consume 45 to 50 pounds of worms and insects each year.
Moles can dig surface tunnels at 18 feet/hour, and must eat every three to five hours.
Moles travel through tunnels at about 80 feet/minute.
In order to breathe underground, moles have twice as much blood as similar sized mammals.
Many homeowners try to take mole control into their own hands and are often unsuccessful. A common misconception of mole control is that limiting insects and grubs (source of food) in your lawn will rid the area of moles. The fact is that earthworms are actually a mole’s primary food source. Also, mole baits, ultrasonic devices, and chemicals like castor oil merely put off your mole problem, forcing them to colonize elsewhere in your lawn, causing more damage. If your lawn has been ruined by moles, our professional team is ready to assist.
The professionals at Lawn Plus understand that mole eradication is a subtle art, which requires knowing how a mole moves through its tunnels and precisely where to place the bait. Our mole control method has proven to be highly effective in both lab and field efficacy studies.
This method involves strategically placing medicated worms that resemble the mole’s favorite food – earthworms – throughout its tunnel system.
