Mirfield lies on both the Calder and the canal, and the grassy edges of each can send moles into nearby gardens. We can assess what is going on in yours.
Anyone who has watched a lawn after the first autumn rains knows how fast the ground can change. In Mirfield, older stone housing, Victorian terraces and later estates all run close to river and canal edges. Those banks are soft and green, and a mole will travel along them. When it finds a garden lawn on the way, it may well stay.
We start by finding which tunnels are live and which have been abandoned, since many mounds are historic. Moles do not enter houses, so our work stays in the garden or grounds. We discuss lawful, humane removal and do not recommend poison. The quote depends on the ground and the visits needed, and we can give a free quote after we have walked the plot.
If you see open holes, fill them so nobody trips, but treat that as tidying only. Fresh soil afterwards shows the tunnel is still used, which helps us understand what is happening. Seeing the whole pattern is more useful than one hill.
Often it can be, since it is outdoors and side access is enough. Tell us how to reach the garden when you ring. Same-day appointments are available, depending on the diary. Just let us know where we may walk.
