The mole is a common British mammal and, although not often seen, the results of its tunnelling are well known and may cause damage in a range of situations. In gardens and amenity areas, molehills and tunnels can be a significant nuisance. In agriculture, contamination of grass by soil may lead to poor quality silage being produced. There is also a risk of damaging grass-cutting machinery and stock. Mole runs may disturb roots and adversely affect plant growth. This leaflet is intended to give information on the principle methods of control, providing advice on what methods are suitable in different situations, and whether there are restrictions on who can use them.
