How to Remove Moles From a Garden Without Harming the Mole - By: david2145

Various anti mole home remedies have been suggested including: buying a cat, shoving garlic cloves down the mole tunnels, stamping down the mole hills to try to suffocate the mole as well as many often laughable ways to try to kill the mole.

If you go down the route of buying a cat to take care of your mole problem you will end up with a nice pet but I have yet to come across a cat owner who has successfully had their cat eradicate their mole. Garlic cloves down mole tunnels will only encourage your moles by providing them with a tasty snack and methods to kill the mole usually end in the hunter hurting themselves instead of the mole.

The problem with these methods is that they do not work. The only methods that do work are poison, traps or solar mole repellents. The problem is the first two methods kill the mole and certainly not in a humane way. The only remaining method that works is to buy a mole repellent.

Solar Mole Repellents work by sending sound and vibrations through the ground which to the mole both sound annoying and sound like an intruder has entered their territory. The moles natural instinct is to run away from an intruder thereby vacating their tunnels. As long as the repellent keeps working the mole will not return from their fear of this intruder and instead will create a new home elsewhere.

The repellent which looks like a stake with a flat top where a solar panel sits is driven into the ground of your lawn and draws all the power it needs from the sun. There is no maintenance needed so you simply can turn it on and forget about it while the repellent chases the mole away for good.

Most repellents are designed to only chase away moles and similar dwelling rodents so it will not negatively affect pets or humans. Additional rodents that can be chased away with such a repellent includes: gophers, rats, mice, voles and shrews.
