Mole Damage
The mole, although quite small and innocent looking, can create havoc on your lawn or your favorite golf course. Volcano
like mounds of dirt that can be up to two feet wide may be a sign this furry creature is making a home in your lawn. These
mounds are piles of excavated dirt from tunnels that the mole digs out with their front claws. The piles can cause bare spots
in the grass and can be quite unattractive.
Moles make surface tunnels that cause cracks in soft soil. This can create what feels like spongy soil when stepped on.
Moles' tunneling can cause cracks in concrete sidewalks and can even affect your foundation. Long-term damage can also be
extensive. Moles are exceptional diggers and can tunnel up to 12-15 ft per hour. This can cause deep tunnels that can sink
your entire soil level or cause large sunken areas in your lawn or golf course.
So, how does one remove these pesky critters? The best and most reliable form of removal is trapping.
