July 27th, 2011 by Tuff Turf MolebustersWinter Mole Activity
February 25th, 2011 by Tuff Turf MolebustersLast week when the weather warmed up and the snow melted for a day or two our phones were ringing off the hook! Customers were calling in to sign up for mole control programs because the melting of the snow uncovered yards full of mole trails. It sounds like there was a lot of mole activity going on this winter! One of our frequently asked questions is “Moles are dormant in winter, right?” In fact moles don’t hibernate nor do worms. The moles follow worms deep into the ground as both try to avoid freezing. Most of the moles deeper (older) tunnels remain comfortable throughout the winter. Winter damage by moles usually occurs during unseasonably warm periods or beneath the insulation of heavy snow. Moles can’t hibernate because they don’t store food or fat. This fact shows the importance of a good mole control program during the summer so that the moles don’t continue to repopulate and further damage your lawn during the winter.

3 more moles
January 11th, 2011 by Tuff Turf MolebustersWe found 3 frozen moles in traps under the snow. That is a good way to preserve them!
Moles from Arkansas
January 11th, 2011 by Tuff Turf MolebustersHey Jim,
We had a live mole in one of our traps the other day. I have attached a short video we shot of the mole. Feel free to use it if you would like.
Thanks for all your help

Final Mole Head Count
December 9th, 2010 by Tuff Turf MolebustersWe ended 2010 with a record number of trapped moles. We caught 1953 Michigan moles! The snow needed to wait one more week and I think we could have hit 2000.
