Moles are known to be very harmful animals. They usually attack domestic gardens or farms and destroy the crops planted on them. They make holes on the ground making the environment to look unattractive. This is what made the invention of traps to come up which solve this problem. The steps on how to set a mole trap are as follows.

The first step is to let the mole settle on the place. This is by letting them build as many mole hills as possible. It is after this that one should set the trap. This ensnare has to be set on the freshest hill. The freshest hill can be identified easily through observation. It is usually the one which enlarges daily. The tunnel needs to be found after this by the use of a cane.

Fingers are then used to find the directions of the tunnels easily. The pests used these channels move from one to place to another. This is the reason why they make a lot of tunnels for this use. Entraps are placed at the tunnels to trap them easily without much effort. It is therefore very important to find the tunnels and their directions to market before setting them.

The ground is then cut around the pest entrap. The hole made should not be bigger than the trap. The idea is to make the process unnoticeable to the destructive animals. Once the holes around entraps are made big, they alert the animals that there is danger. Once it becomes visible the whole operation becomes useless.

When the process of locating entraps is complete the mole tunnels need to be cleaned. The cleaning should be done with a lot of keenness to ensure that the soil is still firm. Loose soil can make the trap not to be useful and work as per required. It is important for the soil to remain intact. Its firmness determines its outcome.

The setting of the traps is different. This is because other types of traps can also be used. It is the duty of the mole trapper to know the type of the trap to use. The traps have to be set on the same way as per the instructions. This is to ensure that the positioning is done with sensitivity and with a lot of ease. Once the instructions are given rules of good listener should be listened.

The last step is to cover ensnare. They should be covered as lightly as possible. A little amount can be used in the covering. This prevents the pests from noticing the trap. Coverings have to be done in such a way that the pests will get caught in them.

Many job opportunities have risen due to this problem. Mole catchers offer these services at a fee. These services are mainly hired by the financially stable people. The others can do the work on their own by following the instructions well. The steps used are always given to give guidance in this process especially the starters.
