York is a historic walled city on the Ouse and Foss, with narrow streets, terraces and riverside property. Moles matter only where there is lawn.
Inside the walls there is little for a mole. Narrow streets and old buildings mean cobbles and paving. The calls come from terraces with a back lawn, riverside plots beside the Ouse and Foss, and grounds around larger properties. Many old and listed buildings have gardens with care requirements, so a gentle, lawful approach matters more than a quick fix.
If your property is listed, tell us, since boundary walls and garden features may need protecting while we work. We look at the tunnels, explain lawful removal, and keep clear of poison. Moles are a ground pest only. York is in North Yorkshire, and we cover it. Price depends on the garden and visits, and a free quote follows the survey.
Mole work is about the garden, not the building, but boundary walls, paths and garden features may be sensitive. Check what applies to your property and tell us, so we can plan around them. Planning around them is simple.
Almost never, because there is no soil to dig. Moles are a problem for gardens, riverside grass and grounds. If you hear noises in a flat, it is likely a different pest, and we can help identify it.

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