Needs some lawn care with getting

Rid of moles or voles. This has been the worst year I have had this problem. My yard has ruts from all the tunneling they have done. My cat sucks at her job. Any product, bate, or home remedy that somebody has used. Help a tiger brother out.

Often times, they are searching for grubs

they make grub killer granules for lawns. Once the grubs are dead, the moles will typically leave.

MOST REMEDIES ARE GIMMICKS. I HAVE OBSERVED PROFESSIONALS USING TRAPS. lOOK ON YOUTUBE THERE IS A NEW TRAP YOU SET BY STEPPING ON SO YOU DONT RISK INJURY WITH YOUR HANDS. TRAPS WORK

SORRY, THE MOLES LOVE WORMS SO GETTING RID OF THE GRUBS WILL NOT RID YOU OF THE MOLES AND VOLES.

I recently hired a company to rid my yard of moles. Here's what they told me. Voles are vegetarian and will get into your plants and eat the roots. Moles are carnivorous and will eat grubs in your lawn. Running them off is more effective than trapping them. First they put down an insecticide to eliminate the food source, then they put down castor oil as a repellent. They had to do two treatments, but the moles are gone and my lawn has healed

Voles and moles are very different. They eat different things.
I kept up a nice lawn for 30 years. For the last 20 have had no lawn, not even a lawn mower.
That is over a thousand hours I have spent on things more fun.

Pour concrete on the yard to replace the grass and paint it green.

I treat my lawn with a granular grub killer every spring. Got my yard back. Go to a local feed store, they can normally tell you which brand works best.

Put down milkey spores 18 years ago to get rid of grubs. Still working great.

That also solves the June Bug deal. It is expensive but spreads on its own once established.

I stuffed rat poison down several of the tunnels. Took about a week but whatever it was chewed the poison either to eat it or get it out of the way. Problem solved.
