Silsden is a large Airedale village with old stone cottages, newer estates and the Leeds and Liverpool Canal. Lawns and canal-side grass suit moles well.
Villages have a different mole pattern from towns. Gardens are often larger, field and canal boundaries are close, and there is less hard surface between the open land and your lawn. In Silsden, older stone cottages with long plots sit near newer estates, and the canal in Airedale adds a green corridor that an animal could use to move around.
We do not assume the problem is bad. Often one animal is working one run, and understanding that run is enough to plan with. We explain lawful methods and do not use or advise poisons, and mole work is confined to gardens and grounds. A quote follows the visit, depending on how big the area is. Fully insured and trained technicians carry out the work.
Not in principle, but larger plots and nearby fields mean a mole can be replaced by another from outside. That is why we look at the entry points to your garden, not only at the mounds on the lawn.
Yes. A walk over the whole plot lets us mark active runs and explain what lawful removal would involve. Tell us the size when you ring 0113 347 0014 and we can arrange a visit.

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