MOLE CONTROL – FAST, PROFESSIONAL & EFFECTIVE
Moles create raised tunnels and molehills as they dig through soil searching for insects and worms. Although you rarely see them above ground, the damage can be extensive — especially in lawns, paddocks, gardens and fields.
Heavy mole activity can make the ground uneven, weaken soil structure and create trip hazards for people, pets, livestock and machinery.

Did you know?
A mole can dig up to 20 metres of tunnel in a day using its spade-like forepaws to effectively breaststroke its way through the soil. Every now and again, loose soil is pushed up to the surface, resulting in what we see as a mole hill.
