Flowers like daffodils and marigolds are natural mole deterrents. Rather than killing the moles, natural repellents simply keep them at bay. Natural mole repellent can be as simple as planting vegetative barriers throughout the area that deter moles. These include plants like daffodils, marigolds, alliums, and fritillarias. Using these plants in your landscaping may lessen the chance of a future mole infestation.
All in all, moles are beneficial animals, consuming numbers of potential insect pests and aerating the soil. However, there is no doubt that they are highly attracted to the bounty to be found in a well-manicured lawn. Here they become quite a nuisance, destroying the root systems of plants, shrubs and flowers that they encounter. One of the best ways to prevent mole damage is to eliminate their food sources. Treating your lawn to control insects and grubs will go a long way in eliminating moles from your landscape.
DIY methods can be quite difficult to master when it comes to ridding your yard of moles. The moles’ tunnel systems make it difficult to pinpoint where the little beasts are active, rendering your removal method ineffective. If you find that your own methods of mole removal are not working, it’s time to contact a professional. Apex Wildlife Control has trained wildlife technicians who can locate and remove moles.
