Signs You Have Moles

Raised ridges across the turf

Surface tunnels push up long, winding ridges of soil. They are the clearest sign, and what separates moles from burrowing rodents.

Volcano-shaped mounds of soil

Deeper tunnels get cleared by pushing soil to the surface, leaving conical molehills rather than an open hole.

Spongy turf and dying patches

Ground that gives underfoot, and grass that browns off where the root zone has been cut through by tunneling.

Hearing scratching but don't know what it is? That's most of our calls. We'll identify it during the inspection.

What Mole Removal Includes

Mole control comes down to finding the runs that are actually in use. A single mole can produce an extensive network, so the count usually matters less than trap placement, and repellents do not clear an established system.

Moles
  • Inspection of the property to identify active runs and separate them from abandoned tunnels
  • Trapping placed in the active runs, which is what determines whether mole control works
  • Follow-up to confirm activity has stopped
  • Assessment of the grub and earthworm conditions drawing them in
  • Guidance on protecting beds and landscaping
  • Warranty on the work performed

How It Works

  1. 1
    Comprehensive inspection. We find the animal and the entry points — rooflines, soffits, attic and gable vents, crawl spaces, damaged siding.
  2. 2
    Humane removal. Safe, proven methods to get the animal out quickly.
  3. 3
    Sealing and repair. We seal every access point and repair the damage, with a warranty on the work performed.

Straight to the point, Mike was the best. A bunch of companies didn't want to take the job of getting rid of a bird's nest, but he made it seem easy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Moles or voles?

Moles push up ridges and conical mounds and eat insects. Voles leave narrow surface runways in the grass and gnaw plant roots and bark. The control work is different, so identification comes first.

Do repellents and sonic spikes work?

Neither reliably clears an established tunnel network. Trapping in the active runs is what removes the animal.

How many moles are in my lawn?

Usually fewer than the damage suggests. A single mole can produce an extensive network, which is why the count matters less than finding the runs that are actually in use.

Will the lawn recover?

Once the tunneling stops, ridges can be rolled and reseeded. The damage is cosmetic and structural to the root zone, not permanent.

Is it grubs that brought them in?

Moles feed mainly on earthworms and grubs, so soil life is part of the picture. We flag what we see, but removing the mole is the immediate fix.
