Mole & Vole Control Services in MN & WI

Mole Control

Moles are subterranean creatures that tunnel through lawns in search of food, such as earthworms, grubs and insects. Their tunneling creates snakelike ridges and molehills, killing grass, creating tripping hazards, and disrupting the beauty of your lawn. 

bioLawn’s Mole Management Program: 

Our mole control program is designed to reduce mole activity by targeting the mole population and discouraging further tunneling. This program includes: 

• Up To 6 Visits Per Year: Regular inspections and treatments to address active mole activity. 
• Worm Bait: We use bait that mimics moles’ natural food sources to reduce their population effectively. 
• Repellents: These products are applied to inactive areas and deter moles from entering your lawn. Once moles are out of your lawn, we continue to apply repellents to minimize future activity.  

Tips for Success: 

• Leave Tunnels Intact: Avoid crushing tunnels for 72 hours after treatment to allow moles access to the bait. 
• Grub Control: Reduce potential mole food sources by applying a grub control treatment. 
• Pre-Mowing Preparation: Step down tunnels before mowing to minimize lawn damage.

Vole Control

Voles are small rodents that feed on plants, roots, fruits, and seeds. They often live in unmaintained areas but cross lawns to find new habitats. During the winter, voles burrow venture out into the lawn, creating brown tracks and nesting patches that become visible in the spring. This activity can damage grass and leave larger patches that require repair. 

bioLawn’s Vole Control Treatment:

Our vole control treatment features an organic repellent applied in the fall. This natural irritant discourages voles from spending time in your yard. While it doesn’t guarantee complete vole removal, it significantly reduces their activity, resulting in fewer brown tracks in the spring. 

Spring Revocery Tips for Vole Damage:

• Patience: Allow the soil to dry out and grass to grow actively. 
• Light Raking: Rake brown areas gently to encourage healthy grass to fill in. 
• Seeding: For larger brown patches, reseeding can speed up recovery and restore your lawn’s appearance.
