1.0 out of 5 stars Don't Waste Your Money, October 16, 2007

By	Speaking Out (Virginia) - See all my reviews

The only way this item would get rid of moles (or voles) is if you accidentally stabbed the mole while putting the stake in the ground! I purchased one of these, just to test it, several months ago, and although I still saw a mole hole or two in the flower bed, the roses seemed to perk up a bit. Then, in August, I purchased two more for heavily infested areas. The moles have tunneled into the ground right next to the base of this product and tunneled under and completely around it as well. Apparently they enjoy a good massage every day. I am thoroughly disgusted with the three "mole chasers" I purchased and if it were within the return period, I would send them back in a heartbeat. My dog does a better job detering the moles by just sitting on their mounds!

2.0 out of 5 stars Several potential drawbacks, September 30, 2007

By	K. Collier (Nacogdoches, Texas) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This product looked like a pretty good idea. However, there are several problems. First, the solar panel charges a battery that only lasts a year. My last mole chaser had traditional batteries that had to be replaced every six months. With the solar panel I'm not saving that many batteries and I'm sure these rechargeables will be harder to find and more expensive than those D cells I used before. Second, the head is large (much larger than the solar panel itself). When you combine this with the need to put it in direct sunlight you end up with a big plastic disk with a solar panel in the middle of your yard. It's impossible to hide and only slightly more attractive than a mole hill. Finally, mine didn't seem to be well made. The buzzer came detached from the inside of the spike with only the gentlest tug on the wires. It looks like a case where two drops of glue rather than one would haves prevented this.
I'll leave others to debate whether or not these kinds of devices work. I've had a different brand before and it drove my moles away. Your results may vary.

5.0 out of 5 stars STI Solar mole & gopher chasers really do work, but..., February 25, 2009

By	Eric J. Ohlrich "Sprout Wizard" (Silver City, NM USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

These devices work and may operate for two or more years without battery replacement, but they work best when three or more units are placed in proximity to each other to drive the critters away from the area.
