Understanding Mole Behavior: Why Traps Are the Most Effective Solution

Moles are digging machines, creating mole tunnels in search of worms, grubs, and insects beneath the soil surface. Unlike some wildlife pests, moles do not respond well to deterrents like castor oil, sound devices, or chemical repellents. Many homeowners try ineffective mole traps or DIY solutions that fail to address the issue properly.

At The Mole Hunter, we use the best mole traps, including choker loop traps, scissor traps, and spring traps, to ensure efficient removal. Our strategy targets active tunnels, surface tunnels, and deep tunnels where pesky moles are most likely to travel. By installing mole traps in one or two spots along the main tunnels, we maximize effectiveness and get rid of moles quickly.

Choosing the Right Trap: Why Our Methods Work Best

To successfully trap moles, it’s essential to understand their behavior and movement patterns. Moles tend to follow established paths, creating mole tunnels beneath loose soil as they search for food. By identifying each active tunnel and monitoring mole mounds, we place the right mole trap exactly where it will be most effective.

Our approach includes using scissor trap, choker loop trap, and spring trap designs, each proven to work in different conditions. When placed correctly in an active surface tunnel or along a main tunnel, these traps ensure the best chance of catching moles. Since even one mole can cause significant lawn damage, we often use many traps to maximize success.

Moles disturb yards by pushing up mole hills and displacing loose dirt, often tunneling through feeding tunnels in search of food. The key to effective trapping is proper placement—firmly securing the trap in loose dirt, setting the trigger pan correctly, and ensuring the mole moves naturally into the trap’s pat

Frequently Asked Questions

A: The best time to trap moles is during their most active periods, typically in the spring and fall. These seasons align with increased tunneling activity as moles search for food in active surface tunnels and prepare for changes in weather. Milder temperatures and moist loose soil make it easier to identify mole mounds and set traps effectively.

A: When placed correctly, mole traps are highly effective, offering one of the best ways to remove moles from your property. Proper placement in active tunnels and using the right equipment, such as scissor traps, spring traps, or choker loop traps, ensures maximum success. Professional trapping services increase the likelihood of success by accurately identifying the most used tunnels and setting traps according to proven techniques.

A: Typically, a mole trap should remain in place for 48-72 hours in an active tunnel. If no activity is observed during this period, it’s best to relocate the trap to a different area with fresh signs of mole pushes, mole hills, or loose dirt. Regular monitoring and adjusting trap placement are essential for catching moles efficiently
