Moles may be small, solitary creatures, but a single mole can dig up to 20 metres of tunnel in just one day, causing rapid and extensive damage to your property.

While they are often viewed as just a nuisance, a mole infestation presents several real problems for homeowners, gardeners, and sports clubs:

1. Severe Lawn & Landscape Damage

The most obvious sign of a mole is the molehill. These large mounds of excavated earth smother the grass beneath them, killing the lawn and leaving unsightly bare patches. In well-tended domestic gardens, this undoes hours of hard work and thousands of pounds spent on landscaping.

2. Tripping Hazards For Public And Family

Moles create a network of shallow feeding runs just beneath the surface. As these tunnels weaken the topsoil, the ground becomes spongy and collapses underfoot. This creates a severe tripping hazard for children playing, and makes sports pitches unplayable and dangerous.

3. Expensive Lawnmower Damage

When a mole pushes earth to the surface, it often brings up stones, pebbles, and hard debris. If hidden in the grass, these stones can cause catastrophic and expensive damage to the blades of rotary and ride-on lawnmowers.

4. Destroying Plant & Grass Roots

Moles are insectivores—they eat earthworms and grubs, not your plants. However, as they relentlessly tunnel through your flowerbeds and beneath your lawn, they sever and expose the delicate root systems of grass, expensive shrubs, and young trees, causing the plants to wilt and die.

Can you just leave them alone?

Many homeowners hope the mole will simply move on. Unfortunately, an empty tunnel network is valuable real estate in the animal kingdom. If left untreated, the tunnel system will only expand, and new moles will eventually move in to claim the established runs.

The only permanent solution is to have the resident mole professionally removed and the tunnel network monitored.
