QUESTION
Do Moles respond to those vibrating sensors. Now I'm not politically incorrect: I do like life and animals. But sometimes folks can trip in those holes. Any idea about mole control and some of the newest technologies?
ANSWER
Be sure you are dealing with moles and not pocket gophers or ground squirrels - the control techniques are different for each. Moles tunnel and will push the dirt out leaving volcano-shaped mounds. Gopher mounds are kidney shaped and the entrance will be plugged if it is an active tunnel. Voles and ground squirrels leave open holes.
None of the home remedies or commercially marketed mole repellents including sonic and vibrating devices are effective. They might scare the moles for a bit - they will eventually get used to the sounds/vibrations and return. Any good wildlife control specialist will tell you electronic devices, poisons, gases, grub control are are useless gimmicks.
