Where to Find Moles

How to Identify a Mole Problem

When you have a mole problem, you will notice mounds of disturbed soil in your garden or lawn from the moles burrowing. Moles burrow because they are looking for food and have sensitive eyes so they remain underground or protected by foliage when possible. A mole is four to nine inches long, has pink feet and a tail, long and grey or brown fur and tiny eyes. You may not see the mole responsible for the mess, but you will notice mounds of earth and tunnels. After you identify the problem, it’s important to determine how to get rid of the mole and call an Wildlife Management Services mole control expert.
