Moles

About this pest

Short Description of Moles and Their Behavior:

Moles are small, burrowing mammals that spend most of their lives underground. With their cylindrical bodies, velvety fur, and powerful forelimbs, they tunnel extensively in search of insects and earthworms. Their digging habits often lead to unsightly molehills and damaged lawns, as they create intricate networks of tunnels beneath the surface.

Why You Might Be Seeing Moles on Your Property:

  • Abundant Food Sources: Moles are attracted to lawns with high populations of earthworms and insects, their primary food sources.

  • Moist Soil: Moist, well-watered soil makes digging easier and is preferred by moles.

  • Lawn Structure: Loose, sandy, or loamy soil provides an ideal environment for moles to create their tunnels.

  • Seasonal Activity: Moles are particularly active in the spring and fall, seeking to expand their tunnel systems during cooler weather.
