Moles (animal)

On the list of burrowing rodents is the mole, whose original name in Germany and Scandinavia means 'dirt tosser'. The mole uses its toxic saliva to paralyze earthworms, of which thousands then can be stored in underground larders for fresh eating. Contributors typically want to know about the mole's environmental role in opening air passageways underground, geographic ranges, most effective controls by gardeners, and predator/prey roles within soil food webs and surface food chains.

Asked by Wiki User

There are a couple of options. The most effective is by actually trapping them. Usually, moles come into the lawn or garden because they have found a plentiful food source. They primarly eat earthworms, or grubs. By eliminating the moles food source they should just go away. There is nothing you can use to kill earthworms, but if you look in the soil and see grub worms there are plently of products out there to eliminate them.
