- How to kill moles. If you're watching, then you know how frustrating it can be to have moles ruin your yard. I started using this method about 6 years ago after trying spike traps, poison worms, and other methods with very little success. If you want to get rid of the moles in your lawn, then you need an effective method that gives you proof of dead moles. The scissor trap is the most effective mole removal method available today. So simple that anyone can use it.
To get rid of moles in your lawn, you need to do two things. Start with a scissor trap and then find an active travel run. A travel run is one that generally travels in a straight(ish) line going from point A to point B. This is not going to be a cluster of tunnels with mounds in it. Those are foraging locations and they aren't likely to return to the same exact spot. The travel corridors can be flattened out by foot and then checked on for return activity.
In this video, the travel run had been flattened out by my garden tractor tires less than an hour earlier. The mole had already traveled through again. This is a perfect location to place a mole trap. Flatten it out again and set your trap.
Buy scissor traps online at Amazon and have them shipped to your house! There's several good choices to help you remove moles from your yard!

Grandma used to get rid of moels by stepping on the network, looking where it move and throwing a pitchfork at the movement 😂 worked great
Haha, this grandma did the same with a big knife.
The scissor traps (I have 4) have been awesome, I have caught at least 30 or more moles over the last 8 years with them. You made a very good video with only one difference to how I do it. When compressing the trap down to level, I rock the trap back and forth across the tunnel with my foot still on the compressed trap lightly. This way the blades have no obstruction and a clear shot. I have had only two failed empty traps, no credit to me for that knowledge, the Man who sold it to me explained that to me.
Honest review ❤
Great advice. Worked perfectly for me. I ordered one trap, set it around 4pm and it nailed a mole by 7pm. Amazing or just beginners luck. Either way, I followed the advice in this video exactly and it worked.
Got the traps after watching your videos. Bagged the little bastard in just a few hours. I was at my wits ends.. I tried everything, drowning, blowing them up, poison, everything! Nothing worked. Glad i found this video. You’re right, the urban hunting aspect is fun. Thank you
Haha, awesome. Congrats!
I have also nailed moles with the pitch fork as well, but these traps take less time! Excellent video!
Thanks for posting after watching I went down to Tractor Supply and picked one up came home set the trap started walking into house and trap went off and get got my mole in about 2 mins. I have been trying to get rid of it for months
Nice work!
This is the only product I’ve ever used that actually works. Catching one a day so far. Thank you so much
I got these traps after this video - they work! I just got one, they’re already active. I keep four deployed throughout the yard in the main runs at all times. Thanks for the video!
Good video. I have had great luck with the poisoned pellets. It is so important to bait an ACTIVE runway.
Thanks for this video. I went to Tractor supply and picked two traps and already got the booger!
Great video, I wish I was as fortunate as you to get rid of my mole. Right after watching your video I bought two of these from Amazon which came same day and was ready for some Urban Hunting to get the little devil. My friend has had great success using these so he can vouche for them. I followed all the “instructions” from the top rated reviewer (don’t touch with bare hand to keep scent off trap, ect., ect), and after 3 days the little jerk was still having a party. So I watched another video about learning their active times and to just use a shovel. Next morning I put on my face paint and got savage! I caught him that very morning and spiked him on the ground like I caught the game winning TD!
Best mole video ever…Your info. Was not found in the directions…thank you !
Thanks for the detailed video. I dug out the mound and put trap in. The trap triggered but no mole. Saw your video going to reset it on the tunnel not in the mound. Ill update you later today.
Thanks in advance
just bought one of these cant wait to use it. thanks for the upload
I have caught 3 moles within 6 days with this amazing trap!!!
I agree the scissor traps are the most effective but with one exception. The Victor Plunger # 0645 works better where straight objects like a raised bed planter attract moles that burrow tunnels around it. The Victor Plunger trap can sit right next to the flat surface and accurately target the tunnel that runs parallel to the flat side. The scissor trap doesn't work in this case. Other than the exception above, I agree, scissor traps are the most reliable method to catch them. I've used scissor traps for over ten years. They work and what better evidence than a dead body to know you killed the pest?
Thank you for this video! Moles were destroying out yard, one tunnel at a time! We knew it was just a matter of time before the kids or dog sustained an injury. This trap has been a mole slaying machine! It's currently 8/8!
Thank you for taking the time to post this video. I just bought 3 of these traps at Rural King at $19.99 a piece. I haven't caught any yet but they are set in the yard. God bless you and your family!
Good job pops great looking yard have fun with the kids, great vid!!!
Thank you sir!
Thanks, I find foxes keep my lawn relatively free of moles. Though they do sometimes dig a couple times before the capture
Great info and explanation! Just ordered the trap and may get another.
I use these and they work GREAT!
Thank you for this video! I couldn’t figure it out!! Now I got it set!
Excellent video. Thanks for posting.
Great video. Thanks. I always get moles. Picked up a scissor trap, but the directions are awful. This helps a lot. 👍
I just ordered a set of these! I have 6 acres and they are all around my house, yuk! You are my hero if these things kill them! Thanks for the video!
Any luck? Thinking of trying them too
Good video thanks for the tip for catching moles
Scissor traps are great for open areas like this. If you’re having them dig along the foundations, the gopher hawk snare traps are excellent. I’ve caught about as many with each type, my moles love going along the foundation for maximum damage.
YES!!! These things work! And I have tried everything!!
Got this trap yesterday 8-30-2020 and woke up to a dead mole today! Surprised this thing worked so well.
Your back yard is awesome
Great information. Thank you. Nice lawn by the way...
Thank you!
Excellent video . I'll bet you helped out quit a few people . Tractor guy showing us how to deal with moles . LOL . You sure have a nice lawn there . Mine's all covered in weeds .
Haha, I love tractors, but it's fun to mix it up sometimes. Even if it is a little off topic from my channel. Thanks for watching Henry!
Thanks for this great video. Got two set tonight... Hope I catch something.
Great video. I need this. My moles are out of control.
Thanks for the video. Can’t wait to get some. I appreciate showing us how you caught it.
thank you for Sharing your video it's helped me a lot I had a good luck with that work very well thank again 👍
Bygolly it works. Thanks for sharing this. 👍👌👌
Thanks for making this it really helped.
Never mind I found it. Ugh. Thanks for the videos again.
Thanks, and God bless your family and home.
Thank you very much for the info new to the area. Got a mold problem from hell never experienced anything like this before I’m going to buy 10 of everything on the market and throw everything I can at them
I've caught two in just 21 days. There's a knack to using it. It's not as easy as a mouse trap! You need to observe the tunnel activity. I loosened the bolts 1/2 turn for more sensitivity. It took 8 days for the first mole, 2 days for the second mole. Both were caught after a heavy rain when earthworms are more active.
Going to try my new scissor trap today.
Excellent video. I'm going to give it a try
Trying it out as soon as I get out of work wish me luck!
nice yard, can't wait to see green grass again
I'm ready for mowing season any time now!
Great video! I’ve been wondering if I should get one of these…I’ve only been able to get one with my little pitchfork…you HAVE to be in the right place at the right time. Definitely going to order one right now. The only thing I would say I didn’t like about the video is I feel like you should have mercy killed the mole. It would have been a great learning experience for your son…speaking of that, I love that you involved your son instead of trying to shield him, like a lot of parents would have done. Thanks!
Great video. Thank you. Nice home too.
Great job sir those moles are a pain thank you.
Nice video! Just ordered one from Amazon. First time dealing with a mole - it's time might be up come Thursday!
This year the local population of moles has gone completely out of control! Tried all the usual baits, worms, MoleMax & foggers back in May, but our yard was still quickly becoming a war zone. Neighbor even resorted to these friggin annoying sonic spikes (grr, that high pitched sound every 30 seconds really ticked me off so I gutted the one she set closest to my house). Bought 2 of these traps in June. It is now September, & despite the fact our yard is tiny & in the middle of the city where it really should only support 1-2 moles, we've already caught/killed 11 of these pests with our traps. Thinking of buying some to give out as Christmas presents to the neoghbors.
Yep. Easy Peasy. Located the sided of the tunnel by probing with a metal rod. Placed the trap and set it. Next morning had one.
The Ez mole trap works great! What I do is mash all of the tunnels down with my foot first irregardless of how many I have. Then I go back several hours later and observe new recent mole tunnel activity. That's where I put the trap.
I will be engaging in battle with one later today. Thank you for the video
I'm putting mine in wrong! I've been putting it in set. I'll try this. Thanks.
On your advice, I bought the scissor trap and caught 2 moles so far. Yesterday I saw a mole tunneling and dug him out with my shovel. So the count is 3 moles. I plan on buying more traps.
Glad to hear they worked!
Hope you give Moles Last Rites/Honorary Burial - an actual Mole Service.
Great tips! Thanks
Thanks for watching!
Good job. Will try it 🎉
Just a follow up. Went with the poison after having new lawn nearly ruined by moles and wasting weeks with the trap. While there may be some environmental issues the pesky moles were GONE in two days. Zero activity now for about 10 days. Placed the poison which looked like fake grubs in the holes and in 48 hrs no more moles! I even looked and I could see some of the poison was taken from the where I had placed it.
I appreciate you making this video. I brought this scissor trap last year and I had no luck. After arching your video I set the trap just like you said. Pow trap went off and I got my first mole. I thought I wasted my money on this trap but it works. Thank you so much for making this video. Worked just like you said. Thanks again.
Great to hear!
Looks awesome! Thank you will buy!
Good luck!
People, I use the scissor trap and the key to my trapping success is finding the rubs going north to south and east to west. I walk the runs so I get a good press down then I set the trap...ZERO false pop ups. Try focusing on the direction of the run and press with your feet. Dont be lazy.
Just ordered one and hope to trap them before they have offspring. Looks like fun!
Awesome, go get em!
mole run looks more like a drunk person tried to make irrigation system lol. good catch on the mole
🤣👍
Can you please show us how to release the dead mole from the trap?
Bury it
Eat it
@@fredp3088 HELL NAWWW
I sure it comes with instructions, Kraftco Hardware.
The devil is in the details. You're right, a straight run is essential. You also need to look for a spot where it looks like the mole is tunneling closer to the surface so that you can be sure the jaws will catch them when they come by. I personally do not tamp the tunnels down around the trap though. I've done this before and it can discourage the moles from re-using that route and possibly cause them to tunnel around or make an entirely new tunnel.
Thanks for the video. How do you know where along the run to put it? I take it you didn’t mean at the whole bit?
Thank you for the video!! Moles have tore up my front and back yard and my flower beds!! Ugghh
I Just bought the same trap! Got it at Tractor Supply for $29.00
I had bought a different trap and the first time I set it the welds broke on it, so I exchanged it and paid $5 more for the easy scissor mole trap.
I tried tried those stakes that making noise and vibrate, I tried the worm poison,poison pellets and none od them worked!!
So, I decided to start whacking a mole!! Or should I say scissor a mole?! 😂
The only thing I'm worried about is that,like your mole, trap may not kill it (but have it trapped) and I have to finish it off.
I get those things every year. I just caught one this morning with my scissor trap. That was number 5 this season so far. I bought my scissor traps from Amazon and I purchased 2 and they have already paid for themselves. I bought them 2 years ago and I have caught 11 so far between then and now. Our yard backs up to state land...
I saw some fresh runs this morning...gonna go check them out now!
@@GoodWorksTractors Happy Mole hunting and go get em.... I reset mine also this morning afterwards. You never know and there are usually more than 1 of them. Let me know if you get more. Love these scissor traps. Best traps EVER.....Watching here in Michigan.. Stay safe...
If had so much success but one mole I swear is smarter then the trap …I’ve tried everything for this 1 mole but poison :/
My neighbor had good results with a product that he sprayed along the wooded side of his property that kept them from coming back after he put out a bunch of poison peanuts to kill them.
Great video
Those work great
trap sprung twice, two dead moles... a good start, thanks!
I've had about 4 of these for years now, they work awesome. Keep them oiled as they can corrode over time and stick open. I sharpened mine more like a scissors, as much as I hate moles, I don't like making anything suffer more than needed (just a carry over from my hunting.) I'm not a p.e.t.a. freak, just wanted a "cleaner" kill. I was getting several still alive. With the sharpening, some actual cut in half, the others either die instantly or bleed out. Just make sure to sharpen the outside edges so the blades are still tight against each other.
Good idea. I might try doing that!
Throw them to the dogs if they are still alive mate....the dogs will finish them off, provided they are a proper breed of course
Just throw them in a bucket of water. They'll drown.
Best I have ever used!
How do you release the mole from the trap ?
Is there a release button ?
Hi. What happens if these moles are digging their tunnels directly on our sprinkler lines. Will this contraption damage the sprinkler lines? Can we even set it on top of a sprinkler line?
I’m sorry I don’t see the link to buy it on Amazon. Please share it if possible again. Thanks kindly
I did not find any thing helpful to get rid of moles, however, after so
many trials with traps, poison without success, I had found a way to
kill moles by using mouse trap (the one with spring, 2x4 inch wood
board, available at Home Depot). All we need is to use a small piece of
earth worm as bait then put the trap in front of the hole, make sure
clearance for the trap mechanism to snap then use a carton box to cover
the trap & the hole. Guarantee you will find a dead mole the next
day. I have been so frustrated with this animal for quite some time and I
can breath a sigh of relief now knowing how to handle this destructing
animal.
I got one of these (@ TSC) after watching this a while back. (Courtney, you've come SO far in your audio quality!!!) I have such a hard time setting mine, though, so it won't snap back up almost immediately. (And I weigh over 200 lbs., so it's not that I'm not pressing down hard enough.) Anybody have tips for me?
These traps work. We got 2. They’re the only thing that works. Our neighbors snuck over to have a peak and now they also have them. The pool is also effective at getting a few every year
The pool,????
@@alexmichalak6551 the blind bastards fall in and drown
How do you release a dead mole? How do you release a set trap if you want to move it? Thanks!!
I have a vole problem. I've lost many trees, I'm going to give this a try.
Best mole trap, easy and simple m.ruclips.net/channel/UC4u-NTbSVTqIdUDPdpAgjnwfeatured
Dam voles
Thanks for this video. I need mole traps butr am finding that there are several brand names of the same exact design. Do you know if they all are the same manufacturer? did you find that there's a few companies selling the same item? Which is the best to buy? Thanks for yur video and respnse. THUMBS UP!!!i
So you set the trap and stomp down the tunnel beside the trap?
Okay so can you elaborate more on exactly where to pierce ground and place this? I’m confused what the best attack is placing the trap. I see new mounds twice a day in my yard. Thanks man !
Hi, don't place at the mounds, but look for long, sort of straight paths. These paths could still weave around, but they aren't a big cluster of bumpy lawn. They are like a travel corridor going from point A to point B and are reused frequently. Flatten down and see if they pop back up and you'll know you're in a good area.
These work in a perfect world, I've tried all the gimmicks,, you name it,, nothing worked,, juicy fruit, poison, spikes, traps, exhaust, flooding with garden hose,,, and my neighbor told me about using dog poop or any feces. Put it into a 5 gallon bucket, ,make a slurry, I used the hose nozzle and shovel,, I made 4 buckets several daze with the cooperation of the neighbors dogs,, knarly stuff,, I poured half a bucket into each hole,, beginning at the ones nearest my house,, YOU DO NOT WANT THESE CRITTERS UNDER YOUR HOUSE!! I had over 50 holes because they just kept coming after nothing worked,, THIS WORKS,,, everything else dissipates or requires constant monitoring,, do this,, it has a lingering effect and fertilizes your yard,, works for voles, moles, gophers,, all tunneling critters,, HOLY SH!T,, LOL,, it's been two weeks and no new mounds,,
So, what about if the runs are deeper? I have several moles but they are a lot deeper.
Great video, everyone has had issues with moles.
For some reason around here they do not have surface tunnels as
you show. The tunnels are deeper and will make mounds as they
excavate. Its a little trickier to find main runs. I use the
Victor Out of Sight Traps. The same scissor type but you have to
dig a hole for them.
@Joe you can still get them if you are persistent and set your traps when they are in use
That's how my moles are too, they dig deeper tunnels and lots of mounds.
@@ocrun6765 when you excavate your mounds and don't find a tunnel running through the mound (in and out in a straight line) your set will only have a 50% chance of success (tunnels at right angles or only one tunnel leading in. But if it's fresh it's still worth a set. The key is to keep on the fresh mounds and you can control them. 1 mole can ruin your yard, OR you can do what my Mom did (may you rest in peace ma) She had very rocky soil and collected the dirt from the mounds to plant her flowers and such and told me that the moles had a job to do too and appreciated all the fresh dirt...
@@liffy8333 thanks for the advice. I think I'll buy two of these and give it a try. Hopefully it can reach them.
@@ocrun6765 "Victor Out O'Sight Mole Trap 0631" if you have deeper tunneling moles in my opinion. lots of you tube vids on how to use them effectively.
Watched your Video yesterday and got my first mole today!
Can I reset the trap on the same run?
Check to see if the run is still active or not. More than one mole will use the run, but tamp it down and see if it pops back up. Just always put them on active runs.
Hey I been able to use to the trap once to catch a mole, now for some reason my trap will not set in place again it keeps popping out of place. Do you know why this is?
Nice
Good video Dad. More Importantly, how's the kids footbal career going?!
I set the trap, I came out the next morning and it was sprung. When I pulled the trap up, I kinda just forced it up and didn't really dig it up or anything. Is it possible for that to dislodge the mole from the trap and leave it underground?
I have a mole and the same trap.. Can’t catch him. Every morning there is a new mound of dirt.. all the mounds are generally in the same area.. Any tips
What if you have a tunnel and hole? Am i dealing with mole and mice now on the yard?
Awesome product for sure.
But I suck at finding them active tunnels. 😂😭
Do moles exist in groups? If so how do you know you got them all?
Nice vid thanks
Thank you for watching!
The ONLY thing that has ever worked for me has been scissor traps. I put a bucket upside down on top of the trap to keep the dog from messing with it. I also have to put a large rock on top of the upside down bucket so if a dog is playing and bumps it the bucket stays in place
