I really hope someone can help me, how can i get rid of moles in my yard i think they eat roots ?
Question:
Answers:
They eat primarily grub worms. You have to spray the lawn with some kind of insecticide to kill the grub worms. Ask your local garden store what you need. Grub worms are the larva of June bugs.(big brownn beetles).
Moles don't eat roots but they are a terrible nuisance to your lawn. Some people have had success with mole traps or mole poison pellets but that has never worked for me.
I think going with the insecticide that does away with mole food is the way to go.
Moles actually eat slugs, bugs and worms. But maybe their tunneling is disturbing the roots of your plants. I hate to encourage you to destroy them, since they are not actually eating the plants. Gophers, on the other hand, do eat the plants and make lots of holes and all I can say about that is, my dad has bought just about every device over the years to try to get rid of the gophers and he is still fighting them. Usually he tries to flood their burrows with water.
There are millions of ways to get rid of them.
Try searching ebay for mole traps.
