Professional Mole Control Services Across Gloucester & The Cotswolds
Fast Mole Control Throughout Gloucester
European moles (Talpa europaea) are a well-known pest that many people in the UK face but very few actually see. That’s because moles spend most of their lives underground, building a network of tunnels as they search for worms and insects to eat.
While this might not seem like an issue, it can cause serious problems for gardeners and property managers. Whether it’s a beautiful lawn or flower bed, sports grounds such as golf courses or football pitches, or farms, moles can cause serious issues that can be expensive to fix.
Their molehills (mole hills) can be a trip hazard, meaning you may have to shut down your site and keep people away from it until the issue is dealt with. As such, it’s imperative that you get fast mole control and support to prevent moles from returning. Arrest The Pest offers effective solutions to mole problems for homes and businesses across Gloucester, Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds, with minimal disruption and maximum success. Call 07766083234 to start the mole control process.
Signs Of Mole Activity
Moles live primarily underground, so you might not physically see them. Some of the most common signs of mole activity include:
- Molehills: If you see mounds of loose soil with holes in them across your property, this is a sign that moles could be present.
- Raised Ridges: Mole tunnels can create ridges in the ground that are visible from above, and they usually lead straight towards molehills (mole hills).
- Dead Grass Or Plants: Surface tunnels can displace grass or young plants, leading to dead plants in your flower beds and yellow, dead grass.
- Displaced Stones: Gravel paths or stone areas can be displaced by moles, making your space look untidy.
As soon as you notice any of these signs of moles, you need to act fast. A mole problem won’t go away on its own, and if moles breed then there could be other moles on other parts of your land. Arrest The Pest uses humane traps to ensure the fast removal of moles from your space, so contact us today to book your expert mole treatment.

Get Rid Of Your Mole Problem Fast With Arrest The Pest
Because moles create a complex network of underground tunnels, they can be difficult to eradicate without professional help. While there are DIY mole traps available, these can be ineffective, especially when used by people with limited experience.
In many cases, DIY mole traps can be more dangerous to non-target animals, such as other wildlife, livestock and pets, while also being ineffective against moles. This means that you could damage the local environment and habitat, without getting rid of your mole problem.
Thankfully, Arrest The Pest can effectively control moles in gardens and on commercial properties throughout Gloucester and the surrounding area. Our team have extensive experience and can quickly get rid of moles, leaving behind a safe, pristine space. If you’re ready to start the mole control process, call now on 07766083234 and a member of our friendly team can arrange a site survey.
Mole Control FAQs
What Time Of Day Are Moles Most Active?
Moles are mostly likely to be active during the early morning and late evening, when they will go hunting for earthworms, grubs and other insects to eat. However, since moles stay underground, you are unlikely to see them, and the issues will be caused by the mole tunnels they build under your garden or land.
When Is Mole Breeding Season?
Moles breed between February and June, and the young will leave their parents as soon as they are grown to find food and new territories. Moles are active all year round, and can be highly destructive, which is why fast mole pest control is essential to stop them causing lasting damage to lawns, sports fields and grounds.
Why Have Moles Suddenly Appeared In Your Garden?
Moles will arrive in your garden because when young moles become adults, they leave their mothers and go to find their own territory. Moles are highly territorial, solitary animals, so they will look for somewhere new to build mole tunnel systems for themselves. They can move over 500 times their body weight in soil in a single day, and so once they find a new location to build their tunnels, they can quickly cause significant destruction and disruption.
What Are The Issues Caused By Moles On Your Land?
Moles might not seem like an issue, as they live underground, but their molehills can cause a trip hazard for you, visitors or livestock. Moles can also damage plant roots and destroy your hard work, as they spend most of their lives digging in search of insects and invertebrates to feed on. As such, removing moles is important for homeowners and land managers across Gloucester and the surrounding area.
