Mole or Gopher?

{ Mole }


The easiest way to spot a mole problem is a distinct run. Run’s are the tunnel system underground that has pushed up the yard and is visible from the surface. You will find this area is soft and can be pushed down easily. In some cases you will see the grass turning brown following the tunnel system. A mole if not eliminated can gain a well established tunneling network throughout your yard. This not only makes them harder to trap but the damage will only increase the longer they are allowed residence in your yard.

{ Gopher }


Gophers have a tunneling system underground. When creating their tunnels they dispose of the dirt above ground. They find an area where they tunnel to the surface and dispose of the dirt. This leaves large mounds of dirt above ground.
