Dealing with moles in Birstall lawns

Older stone housing in the centre gives way to later estates, and it is the estates that carry the lawns. Birstall's position between two neighbouring towns means gardens are packed together and boundaries are shared, so an animal tunnelling in one plot has easy access to the next. The first sign is nearly always a single heap of fine soil.

It helps to keep a short note of where new hills appear and on what days. That tells us a lot about how the tunnel runs. We then look at the ground in person, explain what lawful removal involves and quote based on the plot and the visits required. No poisons are used or advised, and a mole never needs treatment indoors.

Birstall record-keeping tips

  • Note the date and position of each new mound
  • Photograph the lawn from the same spot weekly
  • Mark soft patches before mowing
  • Tell us if neighbours also see activity

Mole Control in Birstall: questions

Do I need permission to deal with a mole?

Methods must be lawful and humane, and rules may apply to traps and to rented or shared land, so check before acting or ask us. We will explain what is involved in your situation. It is better to ask first.

Can I send photos first?

Yes, messaging a few photos on WhatsApp helps us tell fresh mounds from old ones. We can then say whether a visit is worthwhile. Same-day appointments are available, depending on the diary. Clear photos of fresh mounds help most.

Thank you Sean and Zack for your speedy and efficient response to our wasp problem. We originally thought we had 2 wasps nests but on the end had 4.
