Mole Species Of Michigan

In Michigan, there are two types of moles: the eastern and the star-nosed mole. Both moles have several characteristics in common, such as the ability to dig 30 to 100 yards per day. The majority of mole damage occurs during the summer, but moles are also active during the winter. A mole’s life is simple; they eat and dig continuously, feeding on worms and larvae in the soil. Both types of moles can cause significant damage to lawns by burrowing horizontally or vertically, sometimes up to 2 acres in diameter.

Eastern Mole

Eastern moles have soft, silky, dense fur that lies equally well when brushed forward or backward, an adaptation that allows them to move around in their underground burrow in either direction. The feet of the short front limbs have been greatly enlarged for digging. The palms of the forefeet face outward and are at least as wide as they are long. The eastern mole’s claws on the front feet are broad and flat, whereas the claws on the hind feet are small and weak. The degenerate eyes are hidden beneath the fur and hidden behind fused eyelids. The head, chin, wrist, and belly of eastern moles have grayish-brown fur that is frequently stained brownish or yellowish by secretions from oil glands. The face, feet, and tail are all pinkish or whitish in color. The tail is sparsely-haired and short. At the end of the long, pointed, and naked nose, the nostrils open upward.

Star Nosed Mole

The Star Nosed Mole is one of the most specialized in the animal kingdom. It’s also the most aquatic Michigan mole, and it’s only found in the state’s eastern territory. The star-nosed mole is a small, streamlined mammal with 22 pink, fleshy tentacles radiating in a star-like pattern from the nose. This Michigan mole species is equipped with black and brown fur that is short and soft. Their ears are hidden, their eyes are small, and they have a long, scaly tail with coarse hairs. The massive forelimbs support enlarged, broad feet and large claws that point outward to assist in tunnel digging.

Habitat Of Moles

Except for Antarctica and South America, moles can be found on every continent. They can be found in grasslands, urban areas, gardens, grasslands, sand dunes, mixed woodland, or any area with soil suitable for tunneling. They prefer to avoid areas with acidic soil and mountainous terrain.Tunnels are used by moles for transportation, but they are more than just underground highways. At the ends of tunnels, moles create extraordinary chambers that serve as bedrooms and birthing areas. Moles will sometimes spend generations in a series of tunnels before moving.In tunnel chambers, moles have kitchens as well. They eat mostly earthworms and store them in the section by biting their heads to keep them alive and immobile.

What Attracts Moles To A Lawn?

Because you have a natural food source in your soil, such as grubs or earthworms, moles are attracted to your lawn. When moles burrow into our yards, they create raised tunnels on the surface and pile up dirt when they exit. They do this in order to find food. If grubs have attacked your lawn and you’ve noticed dead patches of grass, moles have probably come to feast on the grubs.To survive, moles require a lot of food. A yard with grubs will be more appealing than one without them. If your lawn is healthy and free of dead patches, your soil is full of earthworms, which are a favorite food of moles. Moles can easily survive on a steady diet of earthworms.

Signs Of A Mole Infestation

Moles have the ability to dig 18 feet per hour. Burrows are dug deep underground, and temporary tunnels are dug off of them. The same tunnel is rarely used more than once. These surface tunnels are a sure sign that you have moles in your yard. Plant roots are detached by moles as they dig their tunnels. This not only allows weeds to take root, but it also has the potential to kill your lawn, plants, and trees. Your lawn will appear lumpy and raised as a result of these surface tunnels. Molehills are another sign of moles in your yard. While molehills are far less common than tunnels, they do exist. They’re typically under 6 inches tall and shaped like a football or a volcano.

4 Signs Of A Mole Problem:

  • Mole Tunnels
  • Patches Of Dead Grass
  • Abnormal Amount Of Weeds
  • Moles Hills (dirt piles)

Beechwood, Michigan Mole Trapping Service

Beechwood mole control servicesKeeping moles out of gardens and yards requires altering the landscape to make it inhospitable to them. This can be accomplished by removing food sources in the soil, such as worms, grubs, and larvae, or compacting the soil with a heavy roller to make digging difficult. Moles can also be kept out of garden plots by burying fencing at least a foot deep in the ground. If the moles remain in the yard after removing grubs, humane mole traps is the only other option. Traps will best set strategically by our mole experts around your home in order to quickly curb the mole infestation.

Our Mole Control Process

  1. Look for mole entry points in the lawn, landscape, and surrounding areas.
  2. Differentiate between damage caused by moles, voles, chipmunks, squirrels, and other animals.
  3. Determine which tunnels are currently operational.
  4. Figure out which tunnels are for eating and which are for traveling.
  5. To determine which trap works best, measure the depth and width of traveling tunnels.
  6. Determine which trap will work best based on the amount of moisture in the soil.
  7. Set as many traps as necessary to catch the moles.
  8. Continue to keep an eye on mole activity and trap until they have been successfully removed.
