What Problems Can Moles Cause?

Moles are usually brown or black with velvety fur and cylindrical bodies. Their bodies can be 4.4 to 6.3 inches in length and moles have very small eyes. These little critters use their broad forelimbs like shovels to efficiently move dirt when they dig.
The most extensive damage moles cause is to your yard. These pests burrow in your lawn, creating numerous tunnels and molehills. Additionally, moles destroy the plants in your yard by scraping dirt away from the plant’s roots to find grubs and earthworms. Although it is uncommon, moles can enter your home, especially if your home has a weak foundation.

How Do You Know If Moles Have Invaded Your Yard?

You’ll know moles have invaded when you see several little dirt hills in your yard. Mole tunnels are at least 10 inches underground, so when you check your yard for damage, check the depth of the tunnels. Molehills resemble a volcano shape. You may also notice disturbed surface dirt in your lawn, which means moles are searching for a mate. Ridges and multiple surface tunnels are also a sign of mole activity in your yard.
