A mole’s underground system can contain different types of tunnels used for different purposes. Some shallow tunnels may be temporary feeding runs.
Other tunnels may be used repeatedly as travel routes between feeding areas, resting areas, and deeper portions of the burrow system. That means the newest or most visible ridge in the lawn is not automatically the most important tunnel to treat.
The goal is to locate the active portions of the system the animal is actually using. That can require inspection, probing, observation, and time.
How BurrowRx Works
BurrowRx allows us to introduce carbon monoxide directly into an active underground burrow system.
Trapping, Grub control and using a poison bait buried inside the tunnels are alternative methods.
Better treatment conditions Reasonably moist, cohesive soil and clearly active connected runs.
More difficult conditions Dry, cracked, sandy or extremely porous soil that allows rapid leakage.
What smoke tells us Visible tracer smoke can reveal exit points, shallow runs and areas where the system is losing treatment.
