Damage Moles can Cause
Yard Damage
Moles can cause large amounts of damage to both plants and grass in your yard due to the burrowing and uprooting. Large mounds of dirt will be pushed up covering spots of grass. In those places the grass will die and need to be re-seeded. The more the moles expand their hunting and traveling tunnels the more of your yard you lose.
Structural Damage
Moles are often responsible for the breakdown of cement pad foundations, pavers, retaining walls and cement walkways. As the moles tunnel under these structures removing material and earth from underneath, it causes them to crack, brake and collapse over time. The cost of repair to these structures is significantly greater than simply dealing with the mole issue itself.
Health Risks Moles can Cause
Joint Damage
With moles digging sometimes over one hundred feet of tunnels in one yard it is not hard to imagine the potential to twist an ankle or sprain a knee. Playing sports or having pets running around in those places will only increase the probability that an injury may occur. If you are aware of these tripping hazards in your yard please make sure to walk with caution.

Commonly Asked Questions
Why is this option better than poison?
CO gas is faster and more effective. In addition, many of the risks that poison applications carry simply don’t exist with the alternative. For instance, poison carries an inherent risk to other non target species such as cats, dogs, birds of prey and other wildlife that may come in contact with the a poisoned mole. It has been documented that poisons often lead to the death of hawks and owls that eat poisoned rodents. Inversely, immediacy after the application of our CO method the gasses dissipate making your yard once again safe for children and pets.
What happens if moles come back again next year?
The moles residing within the tunnels of the lawn will be exterminated. 90% of mole projects are successfully completed after only two carbon monoxide applications. Once those moles are exterminated the tunneling will stop, the lawn will heal, and the yard will be healthy once again. Every spring however, moles reproduce. After breeding and having their litter, the new litter will disperse to find new fertile feeding areas that are ripe with worms and grubs. If new moles discover your lawn the same process will have need to take place. Thankfully Citadel Wildlife does provide an all organic, poison free, seasonal deterrent to assist in keeping mole away year after year.
