Moles - humane trapping

It is hard to believe that such a small animal can cause so much lawn damage. In this case, small mounds of earth known as "mole hills", can therefore be produced by just one mole.

Mole facts

• A mole grows to about 15cm (6 inches) in length, and weighs around 70g to 100g (2.5 ounces to 3.5 ounces).

• Moles have large front feet, which are not in proportion to the rest of its body.

• The moles pelt which moults in Spring and Autumn, is such that you can stroke it in any direction (like velvet).

• They are solitary living animals, except for mating, where they produce 1 litter per year with between 2 and 7 young (usually 3 to 5).

• A moles normal life span is around 3 years, with their diet being made up of worms and ground insects.

Moles tend to spend most of their time underground, making it harder for us to track them and their routine. Although, moles will therefore build a series of tunnels, both shallow and deep, allowing the mole to travel through whilst foraging for food. Once a tunnel system has been built, it will be used by other moles once the originator has gone.

In most cases, if your lawn is no larger than a football pitch, you may receive between 1 and 3 moles at any one time. This all depends on the overall mole population in your area, and whether the neighbouring grounds are doing any form of mole control. SJA Pest Control offer a range of services from one off jobs to ongoing mole control work.
