Information On A Mole Trap

By Brenda Bennett


The most destructive pests that can attack a farm are the moles. They are so small and their movement is through the ground. They live undergrounds. Digging tunnels is one way in which the moles use to make their homes. They find their food by feeding on roots and this can be dangerous especially on plants. They not only feed on roots but also on leaves, fruits among other parts. The best way of destroying these pests is by setting a mole trap.

Apart from plants, they also feed on insects of different types, since they are attracted by insects in some places. Termites and ants are the commonest insects that attract moles in the field. They also dig so many holes in the ground thus destroying the shape and beauty of the landscape.

There are several ways of destroying moles. One can use chemicals or hunting in order to destroy them. Chemicals usually go hand in hand with baits. Whenever the moles feed on food contaminated with poison, they eventually die. People who have no time of using other methods, usually use chemicals. The use of chemicals can be more effective. However, the use of chemicals is not recommended.

Removal of food sources is another way that can be used to eradicate moles. This is because the moles will lack food and therefore they will starve and eventually die because of hunger. This will lead to the migration of moles to other places where they can get food. This method is more efficient. One must ensure that the insect which attract the moles must never return again.

The use of moles is the best solution to this problem. When using traps, they are usually set at strategic locations where the animals frequent. After setting the traps one should check them several times in a week. If a mole is caught on the traps, it should be removed and the trap set again.

Today, there are very many different types of traps in existence. They work in different ways. Some are made simple while others are sophisticated. Those that are simple can be set up easily. They do not require any skills while the sophisticated ones normally needs one to have some experience and an idea on how to set up.

The price of the trap is usually determined by the way it is made. The sophisticated traps usually have a higher price. The price also varies with the places they are bought from. It is advisable to check multiple stores before making a decision where to buy it from. An individual needs to compare prices before buying.

The use of these traps has many advantages. One of it is that they are durable. This means that thy can be used for long periods of time before they get damaged. Although their cost may have been higher at first, they tend to be more economical in the long run. These traps can also remain in the place they are installed for a long time. This is also the other advantage of traps. Lastly, one is advised to use traps since they do not pollute the environment unlike poison, which kills moles and may pose a risk to other animals too.
