But there are cases where moles create nuisance for humans and you might want to get rid of them. This article shares tips on how to get rid of moles naturally so you can live peacefully with these little underground creatures.
Natural Repellent For Moles
How To Deter Moles
Moles are not blind, but see poorly. They have poor eyesight and rely on their other senses to navigate the world around them.
Moles are primarily insectivores and eat earthworms, grubs and other soft-bodied insects. Moles also will eat small rodents that they can catch underground.
Moles are solitary animals that usually live alone in their tunnels throughout the year except during mating season when they may be seen together at the entrance to their tunnel system.
They are active day or night, depending on weather conditions such as temperature extremes or moisture content of soil which determine whether they need to dig new tunnels in order to stay warm enough during cold spells versus digging deeper into existing tunnels so that rainwater does not seep into them during wet seasons when surface temperatures remain high enough for long enough periods each day without any need for additional insulation from outside elements such as heaters inside homes where people might suspect there were some type of pests like rats nearby causing issues but don’t really know what those problems really look like yet…
