Moles are a typical pest in the United Kingdom. They often affect houses in the country, but they have been seen to have an affect on urban lawns and gardens. Moles are burrowing mammals which can cause considerable damage to lawns and gardens as they burrow. They can travel significant distances below the soil in a quick space of time. Moles will also use abandoned tunnels to travel, so they may reenter locations that they had previously left. Moles feed on earthworms and other insects that are found in the soil.
Moles leave molehills, which are mounds of earth that stick up from the grass. These molehills are their way of excavating the earth that they dig through. They may cause serious harm to lawns as they burrow quickly. Molehills can very quickly accumulate and damage a recently appealing and well-kept garden. While a huge quantity of molehills can indicate the presence of a group of moles, it may be the work of a solitary mole.
DIY pest control options are available for a mole infestation. These cover anything from snap traps which may be buried into molehills to deterrence methods such as noise emitters. Moles are extremely sensitive to light and noise so some deterrence methods can be successful. However, it can be very complicated to find out which tunnels the moles are using, therefore it’s recommended to hire an expert mole catcher or pest control company. These experts can locate which tunnels the moles are using to travel and identify which areas will be most successful for trapping.
