Mole traps by design are body gripping traps and they come in several different mole trap designs. The one thing that I learned quick is that the best mole trap is the one you know how to use best which means we have a lot of great traps and tools available to us in the professional nuisance mole trapping industry.
Some mole traps spear the moles in a harpoon fashion and other traps are of a scissor like jaws usually set under wound spring tension.
The key to mole trapping is setting underground in their active tunnels. Always look for dead grass or soft spots in the lawn. The prepare and set the site per the specific instructions given for your mole trap. If mole activity is near your traps but not active in your tunnels just add more traps and and continue to look for more tunnel development.
