Growing Success Mole Repellent, 100 g

There are really only two ways of controlling moles effectively... this solution and the granules. They both both work in their own way, but have draw backs. This bitter powder needs to be mixed with warm water and sprinked on. It works almost immediately and pushes the moles away. No, it doesn't last for ever (lasts a good deal longer than smokes/traps/poisoned worms etc). Yes it is quite expensive. But once you've got them out of your garden you can maintain a 1m wide perimeter barrier that they will not cross. (The "Mole Repellent" granules work on a more slow release process, but are good to keep them at bay when you've moved them. About the same price, but much quicker and easier to apply). I have fought moles for 30 years, and am convinced that this is the only effective treatment. My advice is to never underestimate the mole... attack, and attack hard in the spring

The cardboard box contained only two small sachets of repellent. The only reason I could see for the sachets being boxed was to make it appear that the pack contains more repellent that it actually had. I used it in my medium sized garden, but to treat the whole garden over a period of several days as instructed would have needed several boxes. The moles returned after the second application - perhaps I should have bought many more boxes to do the job properly.

Living along agricultural fields (2-sides) I often get moles invading our lawn areas, especially in the mole-mating season. My preference is to discourage the moles rather than use the more successful methods of control (poison, smoke, trapping, etc.). Over the years I have read many reviews about the performance of Mole Repellents, & many of these dismiss repellents as a waste of time. I agree that the repellent does not happen overnight, but I find that it is successful over the longer term. The method I use is to treat about a 1-metre wide strip on my side of the fence. This forms a barrier which shows success due to the number of mole-hills outside the fence compared to the odd ones showing our-side of the barrier strip. These few problem moles then have to be discouraged & chased back through the barrier-strip and this is the difficult & time-consuming bit. I estimate my process gives about 80% success. If this is not good enough then my advice is to move house where the garden does not border agricultural land.

It did not seem very effective, certainly not cost-effective. It is back to napthalene moth balls for me and, in the final resort, a heavy spade

followed the instructions but didnt seem to affect my mole in any way. i only have a smallish garden (around 35-40 square meters) but the coverage was sparse at best. not recommended. posted quicky though

I bought this after reading all the reviews as a way to help Mr.Mole find his way alive out of my garden. After following instructions etc.. to the letter i awoke the next day (and subsequent days might i add) to more mole hills right in the treated area. Another treatment didn't make any difference either and so i had to resort to a tunnel trap which did the job the next night. Sorry Mr.Mole!

good

ok
