Victor M6006 Outdoor Mole & Gopher Poison Peanuts - Mole and Gopher Bait Killer - 4 Pack

I have a major pocket gopher problem on my 5 acres and I spent 2 days overs a 2-week period to treat them. I would say from my experience that I had at least a 75% effectiveness result.Be careful and wear nitrile gloves when using and make sure your dog is secure in the house, etc. before starting. I used an injector purchased from Amazon (Yard Butler) to search for the tunnels and insert the poison.

The only product I have used that actually works to get rid of Moles

I have some digging critters in my yard that I think are moles. They went nuts the minute it got warm, but when I used this product activity has slowed in some areas and ceased in others. I did watch some YouTube videos on how it should be applied and that helped. Using a stick around the hole to find where the tunnel is, and then putting the pellets in the tunnel (not the hole) and putting a rock over where I had added the poison, worked well.I used a bit of rebar to make my prospecting for the tunnels easier. When I stuck it into the ground and it essentially fell down into the tunnel, I removed the bar, added pellets, and covered it with a rock.This is a product that you have to be willing to add as needed and bring patience. The critters have to find it, eat it, and die. Then you have to reapply when their friends miss the buffet. Your diligence and patience will be rewarded with fewer mounds and a reclaimed yard.

So I find the packaging deceptive. I’ve been working on a significant VOLE with a V for over a year now. I have read so much about what does and doesn’t work. I have spoken with two professional rodent eradicator professionals who basically both told me the same thing which is that because of the number of times you have to check your traps and replace your poisons and check on the tunnels that no one is really willing to pay that amount of money that it really cost to have someone eradicate them so they just stopped Working with clients on VOLE problems.So if you haven’t realized it at this point In your research, moles feed on Grubbs and VOLES Feed on the tender roots Of a lawn among other atrocities including killing trees by eating the precious outer layers of tree trunks which are the protective layer of the outside of a tree intended to keep insects from penetrating the bark and damaging the tree and even killing the tree. Which brings me to the question, why did God-Bring us these destructive small rodents?!?! Well of course I know part of the issue is the purpose they serve for those large wing birds of prey circling my lawn daily and scaring my three Chihuahuas! But enough of that wormhole! Bottom line, after following the instructions I see no sign that my, 340 or 460 voles or any less healthy than they were before treatment. So I’m returning The two year supply I purchased, LOL. I read a lot of really good reviews before I purchased this product but this product is just not working for me. So the search continues!And let me just go back to the packaging… Because of the way it is shaped I had made a false assumption that clipping off the pointed end and then letting it self feed down into the well traveled pathways of the colony would be all that was necessary to completely eradicate my legions of Pests. Turns out, this clever packaging engineer/marketing team creative packaging that looks like it might be used in one way, like described above, but actually your recommendation is that you use to pointed in to create the hole in which you pour the product from at the other end of the packaging, which is predictably a screwtop. Now in the last years I’ve been fighting these varmints I’ve never had a problem which is finding a small twig to create the hole to verify the existence of vowels and location of their well traveled tunnels. Why in the world with this company think I need a cone shaped container to pour a product from or create A small hole for the purpose of pouring the poison into the tunnel?

I've used this product for many years. I like that they've made the pellets smaller. Easier to flow pellets into the holes. I use a short piece of half inch plastic pipe, inserting it at a 45 degree angle several inches into the tunnel, carefully making a angled down hole in the tunnels. Be careful not to get much extra dirt into the hole. I then rolled up a 3x5 card and use it as a funnel, pouring a teaspoon of pellets into the funnel. I carefully remove the funnel and get several leaves and make a bio plug for the hole and carefully insert this plug into the hole. Not all the way, just a inch or two, insure it doesn't get pushed into the tunnel. Then lightly put dirt over it. Careful to not step on or run over this area, as they will not eat contaminated pellets..

I’ve used this product in the past with some success. Recently my yard was invaded in several apparent unrelated areas. I applied the product as prescribed, but question the quality. Some of the product poured out in powder form (no pellets or large particles). Can this really attract the mole and what happens if it gets wet? Won’t it just quickly dissolve? End result; I have diminished tunneling in only half of the yard. May try a different product.

This product has helped me save many a plant! I use it periodically when I notice holes in the ground, squishy soil, and/or ridges from tunnels. Also if I notice a section of a plant. tree or bush that seems to be dying off for "no reason," often the reason is that voles have eaten away at a section of the roots. Be sure to use the pointed end to properly, safely, push the product deep into the tunnels. Using this regularly-like 4 times a year, keeps the vole population under control. It would be great if you could get your neighbors to use it too.
