Moles, Voles, Prairie Dogs, & Other Diggers

When we say diggers, we refer to any outside underground animal. These animals create their homes by digging. Certain of them, for example the gopher, can create anywhere from 10-30 mounds of dirt a month with no visible holes or entrances. These mounds and trails when stepped in by other animals/livestock/people can break legs and bring harm.

These animals can be a menace to your lawn and vegetation. Their digging will leave trails, mounds of dirt, and holes in your lawn. When tunnels are dug next to or underneath a house they can seriously weaken the strength of your deck, house, shed, etc

Fortunately these animals can be controlled, removed, and taken care of.
