Mole Control Services

Moles are small burrowing mammals that can cause significant damage to gardens, lawns, farms, and green spaces in Kenya. Their tunneling activities disrupt soil structure, damage plant roots, and create unsightly mounds, affecting both the aesthetics and productivity of your property. Rafiki Pest Control offers effective mole control services to manage and prevent mole damage, helping you maintain healthy and beautiful outdoor spaces.

Why Mole Control Is Important

  • Moles create extensive underground tunnels that can damage lawns, flower beds, and crops.
  • Their burrowing can uproot plants and disturb soil, leading to erosion and poor growth.
  • Unsightly molehills reduce the visual appeal of gardens, parks, and recreational areas.
  • Mole activity can cause hazards by creating uneven ground surfaces.
  • Controlling moles protects your investment in landscaping and agriculture.

Causes of Mole Infestations

  • Abundance of soil-dwelling insects and grubs, which are the primary food source for moles.
  • Favorable soil conditions that are soft and easy to dig.
  • Undisturbed gardens and lawns providing shelter and breeding grounds.
  • Lack of natural predators in the area.
  • Moist soil from irrigation or rainfall encouraging mole activity.

Signs of Mole Presence

  • Raised tunnels or ridges across lawns and gardens.
  • Distinctive molehills—small piles of soil pushed to the surface.
  • Damaged or uprooted plants and disturbed soil areas.
  • Observation of moles during early morning or late evening.
  • Increased presence of grubs and insects attracting moles.
