The Signs
How do you know when you have a mole infestation?
Moles live underground and are often found in gardens, parks, golf courses, cemeteries and playing fields. You will notice their presence from evidence of piles of mud or dirt, which often causes extensive damage to lawned areas and their territory can cover up to 4 acres. They have also been known to cause injury from people tripping over their mounds on public parks and playing fields, so they should be removed from these areas.
