It is only through trapping that one can be sure that the moles have successfully been captured. Several people have tried this method but have not been successful. The process could be difficult but knowing how to set a mole trap can help you to fully get rid of the moles. You need to first understand how complex their tunnels are.

Moles despite being nuisance they help in soil aeration and controlling other harmful bugs found in the soil. If you can be comfortable with them living around you they do not cause any major harm. However if it gets to your neck trap them. You can set live trapping which is done by setting a big bucket under the active tunnel waiting the mole to fall inside the bucket.

These traps have steps that guide you on how to use them depending on the manufacturer. To keep the track of them so that you do not waste your money on a trap that you do not need. One can place plywood over the hole in order tom keep their track. Spring trapping is very effective since once they push it slightly they get caught.

This kind of trap is activated when the mole pushes itself hard touching the spring. These traps must be set in places where moles are active. Therefore before taking any step locate the active tunnels.

If you get a trap before the mole settles you will end up chasing one mole all over you compound. A mole will not settle until it feels secure in a given area. Do not distract it until you stop seeing mole hills pop up every morning. To know how long and deep the hole is stick in a something that can measure the length.

The trap should be in a position whereby it can be set off once it is touched. These traps are closely related to the mice ones whereby with the slightest touch the go off. You do not want to lose your target. Place it a place where there will be no distraction. Ensure that you remove the soil away from the trap since it could prevent moles from being trapped.

After setting the trap cover the hole and leave it like it was previously. Ensure that the soil does not cover the entrance. However make sure that all the spaces are sealed such that there is no light getting into the hole. This is because the mole will not pass through a tunnel that is bright. It thrives in dark grounds. You can place a board only if the tunnel is deep.

Finding an active tunnel and setting the trap should be the first priority in case you want to be a professional. They can be so hard to catch but if you are passionate go for it. With patience and persistence most catchers have perfected the act.
