The Mole is a hated pest by
most people in lawns, big properties, commercial properties, or golf
courses. The damage the mole creates makes for an unsightly property. The
mole uses mounds of dirt as he excavates new tunnels or as he re-opens
squashed tunnels from human (walking down tunnels or heavier machinery
such as mowers) or nature interference (rain, hail, flooding, etc). Moles
also construct new tunnel systems just below the surface of the ground to
be used for traveling between feeding tunnels. Some of these tunnels are
straight and some are winding. The longer tunnels are used for traveling
while the tunnels that extend off are used for feeding. If taking a
picture of the tunnel system from above, it will often look like a vine
with many branches.
Believe it or not, there is a benefit from the work of a mole. It is a
soil that is very aerated, plus when they come across them, moles eat the
grubs and insects although studies have proven approx. 85% of the moles
diet comes from earthworms.
However, most people, like you, don’t appreciate the excavating this mole
is doing. You are probably like most people where you have tried every
thing you can find in the stores or catalogs to remove or exterminate
moles.
You may have tried noisemakers or vibrating things. I have a theory on
these types of “repellants”. Have you ever tried to get fish worms to the
surface to harvest for a day of fishing and used a piece of wood with
grooves in it and used another piece of wood or pipe and once shoved into
the ground, you rap up and down the grooves and make a noise/vibration,
this brought the earthworms to the top of the ground, IT ATTRACTED THEM.
Now that is what the noise/vibrating devices do. Read the notes inside of
them and they will tell you they will attract more moles and create more
mole activity.
You may have tried Poisons for mole control like talpirid worms, peanuts,
kaput gel, moletox, etc. And you just keep getting frustrated as the mole
keeps going about his day enjoying your hard work.
You may have tried the various traps on the market like the victor spear
mole trap, out of sight mole trap, nomol mole trap, etc. These traps ALL
WORK, but the difference is in the knowledge of WHERE to set the traps,
not how to set them. Each trap works in a different circumstance when
applied correctly. This exact knowledge is what we @ A All Animal Control
have. With over 8 years experience in trapping moles with guaranteed catch
success, we can provide the results you are looking for. You no longer
have to spend hours and hours trying to resolve your solution to your mole
problem, you have the mole control experts @ A All Animal Control taking
care of it. With our team working on your problem, you can now focus your
valuable time working on the projects that require more attention.
You may be thinking that it would be good to control just the areas like
greens, fairways, tee boxes, nice lawns in front of buildings, etc. But in
order to maintain complete control over those areas, all areas of the
property need to be addressed. Moles are animals that are solitary and
territorial in nature, but all have a beginning. The female mole raises
her pups and then “kicks them out” and they have to find new places to
call their own. By controlling all moles throughout the property, you are
also removing the breeding stock.
By now you are wondering how we go about removing these moles and if this
activity is going to be known by every person who visits or plays on the
course. Let me address each. The traps we use in your situation are
completely underground allowing maintenance, carts, lawnmowers, etc. to
safely pass over top without interfering with trapping activity. We use
GPS to locate the general area of each trap set used with flat markers
stuck in the ground, similar to golf ball markers but just a little
bigger. Our experience tells us where to set the traps to be effective
quickly. We open the damage the mole already has done to set the traps, we
do not cause any more damage. We can use one of your carts unmarked so
that it is not widely known what we are doing and will not advertise
without prior permission. Our job is controlling your mole problem
quickly, efficiently, and so YOU DON”T HAVE TO consume your valuable time.
Fees:
We provide service for a FLAT monthly fee for the entire course, this is
to be determined during the inspection process and includes 8 trips and an
un-numbered amount of traps set based on the amount of activity, generally
about 2-4 trap sets per mole. This fee is adjustable as the population of
moles takes a sharp decline due to our services. We recommend at least 3-6
months of service in order to have the kind of results you are looking
for, Complete mole control.
Our guarantee is to produce dead moles that were causing damage. I haven’t
seen a mole yet I couldn’t catch. I am also a golfer myself and understand
the importance of a nice course for present and future golfers. I am not
as good as many people, but having to hit my ball around mole damage is
sometimes frustrating, especially if they are on the green or close to it.
I will treat your course the way it needs to be treated, with respect. We
also provide solutions to other wildlife such as Skunks, Armadillos, and
Raccoons who are digging for insects and worms, as well as bird control
like geese, pigeons, starlings, sparrows, Muskrats and Beaver in ponds or
stream, and Coyotes and Fox.
We service the areas of Joplin mo, Springfield mo, Monett mo, Carthage mo,
Carl junction mo, Duquesne mo, Duenweg mo, Webb City mo, Pittsburg ks,
Columbus ks, Galena ks, Loma Linda mo, Neosho mo, Aurora mo, Billings mo,
