NoMol® Mole Trap by Wildlife Control Supplies – Wire Tong Underground Spring Trap – Safe & Effective Pest Control for Commercial & Residential Use – Great for Backyards, Gardens, & Flower Beds

2 years using the standard scissor type - zero moles trapped. Lawn ruined by moles.One day after setting 4 “NoMole” traps - one mole + one mouse!Yes, I was skeptical….no more though.

This trap work. You have to be persistent and play with how to set it on the most sensitive setting. Keep playing with and use a piece of paper or something else to test how fast it snaps. You'll get it. Took me 3 weeks but I got it finally. I getting at least 4 mounds a day from just one mole. It's been a week and nothing. I suggest getting more than one set if you can afford and giving the mole less option of taking another route.All type traps work (Reason why they all have several 5 starts rating right?). You just have to determine which one suit the type of tunnel or mound you have. Surface tunnel style traps (scissors variation, harpoon/spikes types) work if you have shallow tunnel you can see. I didn't that's why the victor plunger and the wire Tek 1001 didn't work for me. These trap didn't reach the tunnel unless I did some digging, which end up disturbing the tunnel somehow, creating more work also. The cinch trap didn't work also because my tunnel openings were small (1 and half inch or less) and the cinch has at least 3 inch "pinchers", too big. So I had to make the openings bigger, disturbing the tunnel. Now the "in tunnel style traps like this one (Choker, trapeline, No-Mole etc...) work best if you can't see or find tunnels. Then find a fresh mound, clean the dirt on top and find out if it's the middle of a tunnel. Put two of these in there (facing opposite direction).All these traps do not work 100% off the time. The mole will throw dirt on it or the trap will go off and miss the mole. Set it again. And they all can be ajusted to d'une point on the most sensitive level. Some people grease them (wd40). Just try mixing things up a little and you too will be get the best of it. There are several videos on YouTube as well on each trap. Watch them for tips and tricks. That thing is not smarter than you. Lol. These things are said to be able to dig the size of a football field in 24 hours. It's worth the effort to save your yard. I didn't use the dowels provided. I found it easier to tie a rope at the round cycle on the back of the trap and tie the other end to a heavy or long object outside of the tunnel. And for those who have problems setting the trap you can buy a spring clamp at your local hardware store for $3 or less like the one in the picture. Helps a lot. Happy hunting.

If this 73 year old lady can do it so can you. This is great for deep tunnel moles not the ones that run near the surface. My moles dig their tunnels from 4 to six inches deep. You can only see the piles of dirt on the surface. Lots of them ,so I hosed down all the hills until holes in the ground appeared. The next day I could see a new active mound on top. I opened up the mound and found the tunnels.I should add I added foot long chains to the back of each of the traps with key rings, I secured on the chain on surface grass with wire staples. I place the trap deep into the tunnels so I can’t even see the trap from the openings. I plugged the tunnels openings with dirt you don’t have to fill the entire hole but you can. After a day or two I remove the dirt and pull out the trap with the chain I added. With the added chain I don’t worry about sticking my old fingers in a trap. I am having good results with this method.

I wanted to try these traps as I had read multiple reviews that said they worked great, even though I was initially skeptical at the design. I caught a few moles here and there but most of the time the moles would dig around the trap, leaving it still set, not even firing it. Also, the moles would set the trigger off on occasion with no catches. I think these work in a perfect scenario, but mole trapping often doesn't work this way. I have never had so many traps set off without catching a mole. I wouldn't recommend this trap to anyone in any situation as there are much better options out there. The Victor Out O Sight is the best mole trap on the market as far as I'm concerned.

NoMol is what I got when I checked these traps, so the name is right. Those that sprung were empty. On 4 unsprung traps the moles tunneled around the trap, as though they bumped into it and then took a detour. I'm thinking the trap entry is too narrow so bigger moles bump into the trap fingers and stop. The sprung traps I can't explain. It's easy to detect an accidental trip while setting them, and I don't walk or mow over the trap area before I check them for a kill. Too sensitive? Deer walking on them? Earthquakes?My second gripe is having no idea if these are sprung until moving them partly out of the tunnel. If they caught moles I wouldn't complain but it's a bummer to check after 2-3 days and find...a sprung or empty trap. I'll keep messing with these but meanwhile I'm replacing my broken choker mole trap. It's a PITA to properly set, but that style trap has caught many moles in my yard and is easy to see when it's been sprung.

I have used trapline traps for years. I assumed all of my false trips were because of me! I have very few moles that surface feed, but when they do it is random. So no use for surface detection traps! I bought this trap and found there were NO false triggers. Trapline design is weak because mole arm movement during tunneling triggers the sensitive trap before they are caught. Happened too often, to continue using trapline. That does not happen with this trap. Also be aware that moles are migrant. They move from site to site. They travel. No moles for 6 months and then they return when damp soil returns. A beautiful and destructive animal indeed!

Prior to these traps I tried the easyset mole eliminator without success. I've been using NoMol since early September and have trapped 7 moles to date. It does take a bit of effort to set the traps. I watched some YouTube videos prior to use and I followed the directions carefully. I added a string to mine to made them easier to remove when im digging them up. For over a year I had been struggling with moles digging up my lawn and gardens. I finally feel like I have this problem under control.

I have not caught 1 mole. they are just too smart for this trap.
