Moles In Kansas City

What are moles?

Moles, while considered rodents are actually insectivores. They are small creatures with long narrow snouts, tiny eyes, rounded bodies and powerful front claws that are ideal for digging and tunneling. In fact moles have the ability to tunnel up to 100 feet each day and to do so by lying on their side and pushing up to make a raised surface tunnel.

Why do I have them?

Moles prefer soft, most soil and their main food source is earthworms. They will also eat millipedes, centipedes and other soil-dwelling organisms frequently found in lawns and yards throughout our service areas.

Are they dangerous?

Moles are not a health risk to humans and pets but are considered a nuisance pest based on the fact that their digging and tunneling often causes significant and expensive damage to landscaping.

How do you get rid of moles?

Moles are a difficult pest to deter and that is why our mole solutions program includes a thorough inspection and highly effective control measures, as well as active monitoring.

Can I do it myself?

Due to the complexity of treatment and the time commitment required, moles are generally not a pest many people have success in eradicating. Pesticides can be harmful to people and pets if they are misused or mixed improperly and if you treat too much you may kill earthworms and other beneficial creatures.

Testimonials

"I am writing this letter to recognize your employee, C. David Resz. I have had the pleasure of working with David for about the last six months. I have found David to be extremely professional, knowledgeable, courteous and responsive. David responds quickly and appropriately to our needs. He has worked with me to understand our program and what requirements we have in place and why. He even goes as far as to alert me and our facility to potential issues outside of the pest control program (such as a flooding basement).

In addition, our pest control program has been recognized by several external auditors as being "outstanding". One auditor even said that he could tell that our pest control administrator really knew what he was doing and did excellent work.

We, at VVF, greatly appreciate David's contribution to our facility. We recognize that it is his dedication and hard work that solidify a key component of our Quality System.

Sincerely,"

Sarah McKinley, Quality Director
