EasySet Mole Trap - Green

This gadget is brilliant ! We have had a mole problem all summer & have tried all sorts of deterrents. Nothing worked & our lawn was totally wrecked. Then I came across this gadget & since it had such good reviews I decided to give it a go. I ordered it on a Tuesday, it arrived Wednesday & I carefully followed the other reviewers` instructions in washing it with soapy water, rinsing & handling it with rubber gloves. Having found the mole run with a very long screwdriver I put the trap in place & covered it with a plastic bowl as someone else suggested. Thursday morning I could not believe my eyes - no new mole hills (we had had over 30 !!) !! I removed the plastic bowl & found the trap had activated. One very large mole dispatched !! I only wish I had found this device sooner. If we get any more moles next year I will use it immediately. Amazing product. Very well designed, easy to use & extremely effective.An update to my original review. Having trapped a mole quickly in September & another the following May I have been chasing a mole around for several weeks. The cheeky blighter even tunnelled under my traps engulfing them in a large mole hill. I eventually twigged where I was going wrong. When I moved my traps, although I was wearing rubber garden gloves I think either my scent or the fact that soil was getting trapped in the mechanism meant it wasn’t working so efficiently so I was having no success. I then returned to basics & removed the traps, washed in soapy water, rinsed thoroughly & replaced in the tunnels wearing marigold gloves. Within 24 hours I had trapped the offender. In future I will always wash & replace the traps if I need to move them !

This trap was easy to use and I did catch a mole within the first few days. However, since then I have had nothing. The mechanism is stiff and the trigger won't action as it should. I have washed it in clean clear water as recommended by the manufacturer and exercised the mechanism but it still doesn't work properly. I would have returned it but am now out of time. I have caught more moles with the old fashioned claw type traps. Not worth the money and I cannot recommend this trap.Maybe I just had a faulty one but I wouldn't buy another.

I had a serious infestation of moles and looking for a solution came across the Beagle trap, they seemd to be easier to use than the more traditional trap so I ordered three to cover my third of an acre garden. It took a little while to perfect my methodology but once I got going I found them to be very succesful in trapping the little creatures, sometimes within an hour or two of setting the trap. A little care is needed in setting them accurately within the tunnel so as the mole doesn't by-pass them or just push them out of the way, if nothing happens within a couple of days I found it best to re-locate them to another part of the tunnel system. It won't eliminate the problem but it will allow you to keep on top of the problem and transform the garden from something that lookes like the lunar landscape.After two years one of the traps has failed, the fragile plastic "trigger" has snapped off so rendering the trap unuseable. Not sure if spare parts are available? A little disappointing given the price of the unit and I feel sure the other two traps will go the same way given the nature of the materials and construction.

I don't usually leave reviews for products and I have waited a few weeks before writing this one. So here goes... These are simply the best mole traps I have bought. Trust me, I have tried many. After watching the moles churning up my garden yet again I bit the bullet and bought these. They are more expensive than most other traps but they are really easy to deploy without loss of fingers. I have literally caught 3 moles in one day between 4 traps. I leave them deployed and all I have to do is look for the little orange flag it puts up when a mole is in the trap. I would recommend these traps and safely say they are worth the money.

The traps do work well and are easy to position and catch. The problem is quality. I've just received two. One was fine, the other faulty. The spring disconnected. I have had this happen in use and repaired them but why should you have to do this with a new trap? Sent it back and received another the next day. Excellent service, however, I knew this had the same fault even before I opened the box. You can hear it rattling if you shake the trap / box. With this fault it will not operate. You should shake it, it should be quiet and then set and trigger it. It should easily operate. If not it's faulty and will not trap. Shame really as the idea is excellent.

A mole was making mounds in my front lawn. I did research to ascertain how to trap the mole. The Beagle products easy set mole trap did not work for me. It was nowhere near sensitive enough to catch a mole. Very disappointed in the quality for an item almost £25. I must have had a faulty one given other peoples reviews. From my experience don't buy it. I went on to buy Big Bo Buck mole trap at a fraction of the price and it worked first time.

Have tried different traps as my land is covered in moles and if you're not an expert this is the best you can get . Originally paid a professional and he caught about 10 moles but since found that this was the most successful mole trap out of al the ones I tried. Was negative about this product at first but the failure was due to me rather than the product. Have bought a load more but the price rise is a bit hefty. 39% price increase in the last year.

Great product
