Filey is a seaside town with a long beach, a headland and many holiday lets and caravans. Where lawns and grass exist, moles may be digging behind the sea view.
A holiday town fills and empties with the seasons, and so do its gardens. Lawns at holiday lets and caravan sites are often kept tidy for guests, and a field of mole heaps does not help. The seafront itself is sand and paving, but older seafront property and later housing have plenty of grass, and Filey Brigg headland adds open ground nearby.
We look at the pattern of mounds, discuss how a lawful removal could be fitted around the arrival and departure of guests and keep poison out of the picture. Moles do not enter chalets or homes. Commercial service contracts are available for sites needing regular checks. Cost depends on size and visits, and a free survey and quote are on offer.
Usually, since the work is outdoors. Tell us when the property is empty or busy and we will plan visits around it. Note that traps and tools need safe placement where guests walk. Quiet times suit best.
Sandy ground is poor for them, but gardens with proper topsoil and worms are not. Whether you have a problem depends on your own soil, which we judge on site. Soil type varies street by street.
