Pest Control Mole Catcher Doncaster

 

Mole Catcher Doncaster

At Briarquest Pest Control we have lots of mole trapping experience. Initially I lived on a farm and my garden looked like the battle of the Somme. Literally there were mole hills and patches of dead grass all over. My dogs took to digging for the moles which only made matters worse. 

 

Get Rid Of Moles Fast

Mole Hills
Thinking that moles will not live where there is vibration or heavy human traffic is a fallacy. 

Moles will live wherever they want to live and tunnel wherever they want to tunnel. It is this misplaced belief about vibration which has led the innovation in battery powered mole deterrents, or the cheaper version of yogurt pots on canes or seaside windmills.


The only way to get rid of moles is to either gas them or trap them!


Mole Trapping

At Briarquest Pest Control we only use the most powerful commercially available sprung traps when we trap moles. We anticipate that we will resolve a domestic mole problem within 3 visits and guarantee all mole control for a period of 1 month. 

When placing mole traps we ill need to mark the position of the traps with small plastic markers. However if you have pets we may use a sprayed pain marker system. 

Mole control is generally quick and not too disruptive to your garden.

Do You Gas Moles?

Briarquest Pest Control does not currently carryout mole or vertebrate gassing. Quite rightly restrictions on such toxic chemicals are very strict. But for those who do not know how Aluminium Phosphide works. Tiny pellets are dropped into the mole run. The run or hill is covered over or tamped down and the moisture in the soil or air causes the aluminium phosphide pellets to emit a toxic gas. This is lethal to moles but if correct protocols are not followed it is also lethal to humans and other mammals including your pets. Not really something we want to be doing in your garden.!  

 

Why Kill Them, What Harm Are They Doing?

The most pressing issue with mole hills and mole runs is that humans and livestock can fall into the surface runs causing them to lose their footing. This usually results in injury. 

Moles cause thousands of pounds in damage to carefully manicured lawns. Some might say it is only grass but a greenkeeper or lawncare enthusiast their lawn will represent hundred of hours work, expensive turf, seed, fertilizer etc.
