Ossett is a market town west of Wakefield with a textile past, stone terraces and newer housing. When mounds appear on a lawn, we help trace and deal with the cause.
You can usually tell a mole mound from a molehill made by anything else by its shape: a neat cone of fine soil, with the tunnel plugged underneath. In Ossett those cones show up mostly in the later housing, where lawns are bigger than in the stone terraces. Gardens there can be a good size, and a mole may be working several of them in turn.
We map the activity as far as we can, then explain how lawful removal would work and how many visits it might need. Poison is not used and nothing happens indoors. Quote levels depend on the garden. A survey for a home is free, so you lose nothing by asking. If you are unsure whether you have a mole at all, send a photograph of the mound and the surrounding lawn, and we will say what it looks like to us before anyone visits.
Wormcasts are small and crumbly; ant hills are tiny and sandy; rabbit scrapes look like holes. Molehills are larger, cone-shaped heaps without an open hole. Send photos and we will tell you what we think.
Same-day appointments are available, but depend on the diary and where we are working. Ring 0113 347 0014 or message on WhatsApp with your address and we will say what is possible. We can also advise on filling the lawn afterwards.

A typical visit starts with reading the ground, because where the molehills sit tells us how the tunnels run.
