So you've been targeted by our little lawn destroying neighbors, the Moles. Well, don't think that you're alone. Just take a look at your neighbors lawn's and chances are, they've been targeted too.
We know you work hard to maintain your beautiful lawn and unfortunately, moles love it. In fact, the same things that you do to help to make your yard look its best provide moles and voles with an inviting multi-course buffet. What's on the buffet line? Only the finest New Jersey Mole and Vole food available: earthworms, grubs and various delectable insects.
It’s the eastern mole that causes so much frustration for New Jersey home owners. This 8-9 inch long creature rarely sees the light of day, can eat it's body weight in earthworms on a daily basis, and can wreak havoc on your yard overnight.
Not only are mole holes and tunnels unsightly on lawns, they can cause trip and fall accidents and can be disruptive to the root systems of lawns and garden plants. Our New Jersey Moles spend most of their time underground in their subterranean fortresses and are active throughout the year. But gardening and lawn-care enthusiasts are made acutely aware of the need for mole control mainly during the spring and fall, especially after periods of rain, when moles push mounds of dirt up to the ground surface.
The mole’s preferred diet is a carnivorous one: earthworms, grubs and adult insects. Neither the eastern mole nor the star-nosed mole is a rodent, and therefore any gnawing damage you detect on plants is unlikely to have been caused by moles. Voles do, however, make use of mole tunnels to attack plants underground - making moles accessories to the crime!
