Why me? Why MY garden?Why me? Why MY garden?

Sorry, can't answer that one, but if you live in Essex or Suffolk, either near a river, stream or wet ditch, chances are your garden has been visited by moles is the past. They like the rich soils and the damper ground that contains their favourite food - worms. The mounds of earth they eject onto the surface of your lawn come from the tunnels they dig to hunt the worms in. In order to bring an end to the chaos this activity creates, The mole needs to be caught. By setting the correct trap, using the appropriate technique and setting it in the correct place, I can restore order.

Surface Tunnels

One of the telltale signs of mole activity in your garden is the presence of surface tunnels. These shallow, winding tunnels disrupt the soil, leaving raised ridges on the surface. If you notice meandering lines of raised soil, it's a clear indication that moles have been at work.

Molehills

Molehills are perhaps the most obvious sign of mole damage. They appear as small mounds of soil scattered across your lawn or landscaped areas. These molehills are formed as moles dig their tunnels, pushing the excess soil up to the surface. Keep an eye out for these miniature mountains.

Wilting Plants

Moles are known to damage the roots of plants and grass as they burrow underground. If you notice your plants wilting or showing signs of stress, it could be due to moles disrupting their root systems. Yellowing or dying vegetation may be an indirect sign of mole activity.

Sunken Areas

Moles create tunnels beneath the surface, which can lead to the ground becoming uneven. If you spot sunken areas in your lawn or garden, it might be due to the network of tunnels created by these underground pests. Uneven terrain is a clear indicator of mole damage.

Visible Molehills

Sometimes, you may come across freshly formed molehills. These are usually larger and more pronounced than the typical mounds of soil. If you see these, it indicates recent mole activity, and it's an opportune time to take action.

Damage to Irrigation Systems

Moles can also damage underground irrigation systems by burrowing through pipes and disrupting water flow. If you experience unexplained issues with your irrigation system, it may be worth investigating for mole-related damage.
