I've had a serious Mole problem destroying my Yard and other Landscaping for approximately 5 years. I have tried everything with limited success. Poison, traps, flooding their subterrainian subway system etc. As a last resort I tried two molechasers in a 5000 Square foot lot. (a desperate measure I admit). According to instructions 1 Molechaser is enough to cover a lot this size, 5000 sq feet. Don't waste your time and money on these things they are a huge gimmick. I have multiple mole piles 3 inches from the molechaser, tunnels all around both of them. If anything it appears to have aggrivated the Moles, and it most certainly did not scare them off! USE TRAPS, or accept living with the little diggers, but don't buy this rediculous product..... it's a scam! Your better off hiring a Mole Psychic! The only place for these falsely advertised Battery powered Probes is up the manufacturers subterrainian shaft!

We live in a wooded area of East Hampton, New York. While we don't have a lawn as such, we do have flagstones with moss between them, and a perennial garden, which over the years have both proved to be irresistable to what we think are voles. They not only make bulging tunnels, but make frequent access-to-the-surface holes (which have in turn become hornet or wasp nests), and occasionally kill plants. We tried everything -- tamping the tunnels down, flooding the tunnels with water, poisons (a matter of desperation, with a very short-lived effect), poundind pieces of reinforcing steel in tje tunnels, blocking the access holes with stones, etc. I gambled on one of these from Amazon, and it actually works. In what seemed to be a matter of days, the (presumed) voles disappeared. The batteries ran out in about 6 months, and sure enough, a tunnel reappeared. New batteries solved the problem. I'm buying a few more for around the pool.

I purchased this molechaser last fall on a "Gold Box" special and installed it this spring after the last frost. So it's been out there buzzing away for about a month now, and not a mole in sight. Last year the yard so polluted with mole tunnels that you couldn't walk through the yard without creating "sink holes". I'm curious to see what happens as the summer progresses.

A little advice - if you pound it into the ground with a hammer, you won't be able to unscrew the green cap to change the batteries. Oops.

I have both moles and gophers on my farm, and mounds of earth continued to spring up in the yard, even right next to these units. This was even after the two weeks that the instructions say to allow for results. I am having much better results with traps - Cinch Mole Trap, Cinch Gopher Trap, and the Nash Mole Trap. I believe trapping is the only way to get rid of these pests. I had previously tried castor oil sprays, smoke bombs, pesticides to kill the grubs, and poisons. All these methods were supposed to work, but all failed. Since I started trapping, I've all but eliminated the formation of mounds, although new populations will move into the vacant tunnel systems, or so I am told.

I own and operate a professional lawn care and landscaping company. There is nothing more I hate than a mole/vole. I have tried mechanical traps, piercing tools, flooding, and tried killing the grubs/earthworms. In fact, the thought of using explosives like Bill Murray in Caddyshack has crossed my mind (on SEVERAL occasions). Since it is very hard to convince my customers in installing a pet fencing system, getting a cat, and training the 'mouser' cat to catch moles...these things suffice. I install mine using a bulb auger, check their operation quarterly, and they seem to work well (in hard, compacted clay)...If you have a lawn care/landscaping business, these are wonderful devices to sell your customers on (although they do make a funky vibe noise)...

My Uncle Greg and Aunt Linda had more moles than you could shake a stick at. After I purchased them two molechasers, the moles all but vanished. They had tried everything. Aunt Linda was going crazy sprinkling hot sauce on the lawn and driving my uncle insane. Now they are both relaxing in there mole free lawn!! Thank you so much for a wonderful product!

My gopher loves the sound. It seems its activity has increased ever since I placed this product. Find new holes in the very close vicinity of this product every morning. I am considering to use traps.

I planted two of these "mole chasers", both directly in the path that the varmit has been using between my front yard and my back. I have to collapse the tunnel between the two molechasers almost every day and his underground network is starting to approach the size of the New York subway system. I fear I may need to take more drastic measures! Good Bye Mole!

I had moles for 2 years. I tried poison and traps, nothing worked. I thought the molechaser was strange, but I was desperate so I decided to try it. The moles were gone in 2 days. It is 6 months later and still no sign of them. It is great.

Gophers have been ravaging my lawn. I bought the sonic molechaser as a last resort item since poison, traps, flooding, road flares, gopher gassers etc. have done nothing to eliminate the rodents. Two days after inserting the stake into the affected area, the gophers were back enjoying their daily diet of fescue. Perhaps my soil is affecting the unit's effectiveness as I don't have clay in my region - it's all aggregate. Next technique - explosives.
