Licensed technicians
Work with experienced specialists who understand burrowing-animal behaviour, lawn damage and control methods.
Do You Have Moles?
Moles and other burrowing animals may be suspected when raised tunnels, loose soil and unexplained mounds begin appearing across lawns and landscaped areas.
You may need professional mole control if you notice:
- Raised ridges or tunnels running across the lawn
- Rounded or cone-shaped piles of loose soil
- Soft or uneven ground beneath the grass
- New tunnels appearing shortly after older ones are flattened
- Damage concentrated around gardens or landscaped areas
- Grass roots becoming exposed or disturbed
- Activity along fences, foundations or property edges
- Increasing lawn damage after watering or rainfall
- Repeated activity in the same part of the yard
- Burrowing that continues despite basic deterrent methods
Several animals can produce similar signs. A professional inspection can assess the tunnels, soil displacement and surrounding property to determine what may be causing the damage and which control measures are appropriate.
Why Choose We Clean Pest Control for Mole Control?
Identification-Led Service
We examine the tunnels, soil mounds and surrounding landscape before recommending treatment. This helps distinguish suspected mole activity from damage caused by other burrowing animals.
Targeted Mole Control
We focus on active tunnel systems and recently disturbed areas instead of placing treatments throughout the yard without first identifying current activity.
Prevention-Focused Advice
We explain which lawn conditions, landscaping features and surrounding areas may be supporting continued burrowing activity.
Local Edmonton Service
Our technicians provide inspections and mole pest control services for residential, commercial and multi-unit properties in Edmonton and nearby communities.
Our Mole Control Process
Step 1 – Inspection
We begin by inspecting the lawn, gardens and other affected exterior areas of the property.
Our technician looks for:
- Raised surface tunnels
- Fresh soil mounds
- Soft or collapsing ground
- Recently disturbed grass and plant roots
- Active and inactive tunnel sections
- Burrows near fences and foundations
- Activity around gardens and landscaped areas
- Possible food, water and shelter conditions
- Signs associated with other burrowing animals
The inspection helps determine whether the damage is consistent with mole activity or whether another animal may be responsible for the tunnels and soil disturbance.
Step 2 – Custom Treatment Plan
After the inspection, we create a mole control plan based on:
- The type of tunnel or burrow activity
- The number of affected lawn areas
- The size and layout of the property
- The location of active tunnels
- The condition of the soil and landscaping
- Previous control attempts
- Residential or commercial requirements
We explain the recommended service areas, preparation requirements and realistic expectations before beginning any treatment.
Step 3 – Targeted Treatment
Where appropriate, our technician places suitable control devices or applies another recommended method within identified areas of active mole activity.
The objective is to concentrate control efforts on tunnels that appear to be actively used rather than treating every visible ridge or older soil mound.
Treatment may focus on areas such as:
- Fresh surface tunnels
- Frequently reopened tunnel sections
- Main travel routes through the lawn
- Areas near gardens and landscaping
- Property edges and fence lines
- Locations with repeated soil disturbance
- Other active areas identified during inspection
The appropriate approach depends on the animal involved, property conditions and applicable treatment requirements. Products or devices should not be placed randomly throughout the yard without first identifying active locations.
Step 4 – Prevention & Follow-Up
Following service, we provide practical recommendations to help identify and reduce future activity.
These may include:
- Monitoring for newly raised tunnels
- Flattening old ridges to locate active areas
- Repairing damaged lawn after activity stops
- Reducing excessive watering where appropriate
- Addressing recurring insect or grub activity
- Monitoring gardens and landscaped borders
- Checking neighbouring areas for new tunnels
- Avoiding unproven devices and home remedies
- Arranging follow-up service if activity continues
Properties with extensive or recurring tunnel systems may require follow-up inspections because burrowing animals can move between neighbouring lawns, green spaces and landscaped areas.
Residential, Commercial and Multi-Unit Mole Control
Homes & Apartments
Restaurants & Hotels
We provide mole pest control inspections for lawns, landscaped entrances, patios, outdoor seating areas, courtyards, gardens, building perimeters and other affected exterior areas.
Multi-Unit Buildings
Burrowing activity may affect apartment buildings, condominiums and complexes with shared lawns and landscaping. Our technicians can assess common areas and recurring tunnel locations.
Mole Control Near You
Stop Mole Damage From Spreading Across Your Lawn
Do not wait until raised tunnels and soil mounds spread through larger sections of your lawn, garden or landscaped property.
Professional inspection and targeted mole control are generally most useful when tunnels are fresh and the active travel routes can still be identified.

Frequently Asked Questions
What attracts moles to a yard?
Moles search underground for earthworms, insects and other soil-dwelling food. Moist, workable soil may also make certain lawns and landscaped areas easier to tunnel through.
The presence of moles does not necessarily mean the property is dirty or poorly maintained.
How do I know whether I need mole pest control?
You may need an inspection if raised tunnels, soil mounds or soft areas repeatedly appear throughout the lawn.
Because voles, pocket gophers and other animals can create different types of lawn damage, proper identification should take place before a mole exterminator recommends treatment.
Are moles rodents?
No. Moles are small burrowing mammals, but they are not rodents.
People sometimes search for moles rodent control when trying to identify underground lawn damage. Our inspection process considers moles, rodents and other burrowing animals before a control plan is recommended.
Do moles damage lawns and gardens?
Mole tunnels can lift turf, disturb plant roots and create soft or uneven areas. Their digging may also leave visible ridges and piles of loose soil.
Moles generally tunnel while searching for food rather than deliberately eating grass or ornamental plants.
What is the best method of mole control?
The best method depends on correct identification and locating active tunnels. A professional may flatten older ridges, monitor which sections are reopened and concentrate control efforts in frequently used travel routes.
Randomly treating inactive tunnels may produce poor results.
Do you provide mole extermination?
Where mole activity is confirmed, we recommend an appropriate control method based on the property, active tunnel locations and applicable requirements.
Mole extermination should begin with an inspection because many visible ridges are abandoned feeding tunnels rather than active travel routes.
Why are new tunnels appearing after treatment?
Some tunnels may remain visible after mole activity has stopped. New soil movement may also indicate that an untreated tunnel is active or that another animal has entered the property.
Our technician can reassess the affected areas and determine whether follow-up treatment is appropriate.
