How to Get Rid of Moles

Video transcription

Hi, I'm Jim Harmon, California Pest Management, here in Southern California. Now, we're going to talk a little bit today, about moles, when they get into your planter boxes. We already talked a little bit, about when you get them into the turf. What about when they get in the planter boxes, and they start causing all kinds of damage? Well, the moles are going after the insects and the worms. They do sometimes accidentally damage your bulbs, but for the most part, they're not going to be hurting, they're going to be turning a lot of the soil, and kicking your plants up and turning them, looking for the insects, the grubs and such, that are in the soil. As far as control, trapping is the best thing to do, and baiting. If you're aren't sure, get a pest control professional to come in.
