Skipton is a Craven market town with a castle, a canal basin and the Dales at its back. Gardens and grassy grounds here are well placed for moles.
With Skipton Castle at one end of the high street and the Leeds and Liverpool Canal basin close by, the town is full of green edges. Older stone property in the centre gives way to later housing, and beyond that is Dales country. That open land is what a mole calls home, and a well-kept garden lawn is a good extension of it.
We assess the tunnels, mark the live ones and talk you through the lawful ways of removing the animal. We do not recommend poison. A mole is a garden pest, never an indoor one. Skipton is in North Yorkshire, and we do cover it. Quotes are tailored to the garden and the visits required, and a survey for a home is free.
Any garden with turf can be, whether lived in or let. Owners of lets should check who looks after the garden and arrange access. We can survey and explain what we find without anyone needing to be home.
Sometimes a mole moves on by itself, but a lawn with good worm supply tends to keep it. Waiting risks more tunnels. Ring or message and we will say honestly whether action looks worthwhile. Delay seldom helps a lawn.
