Moles

Mole Removal in Grand Rapids, Michigan

Moles aren’t easily seen, and when they are noticed, it’s usually in a yard where they’ve dug tunnels. A mole’s main food source consists of earthworms which is why it’s common to find them scavenging through our yards. Moles have a toxin in their saliva that can paralyze an earthworm giving them the ability to store the worm for later consumption.

Mole Problems

Moles can dig anywhere from 30 to 100 yards a day. Typically, mole damage occurs during the warmer months, although they’re still very active during winter. Moles are simple creatures. They eat, dig, eat, dig – you get the picture. A mole’s life may not be complicated, but the messes they create are.
