Tomcat Mole Killer(a) - Worm Bait - Includes 10 Worms per Box - Mimics a Mole's Natural Food Source - Ready-to-Use Mole Killer - Effective Against Most Common Mole Species

They worked! Been having momentous battle. Tried traps, deterrent, then research said these most effective. Got 2 left, 1 packet out of the several that come in the box and I have the following advice: 1) as it is usually only one critter, just use one packet at a time, ie 2 worms dropped in the tunnel along a run with some distance between. I tried chopping them and they did not work so well. You really don't nerd that many locations in the tunnel. I used a flat, wide tent peg, made a hole, dropped worm in run which I'd found with peg and plugged up the hole to get rid of tell tale light. 2) Don't forget t takes 48 hours. 3) if other moles arrive on the scene shortly after, repeat process. Ive Ben mole free for over a week in their breeding season of February. If anyone feels too sorry poison them, it might help to know how they treat the worms. They squeeze and bash the to extract the soil before finishing them off for dinner!

So many good reviews. I should of listened to the negatives. Planted 6 of these worms in different areas of the garden. I used gloves, without gloves, covered my hands in dirt, used all sorts of different approaches not to let the mole think they were a trap. Nothing worked. All he's done is go mad and make even more holes. Utter useless rubbish waste of time and money.

This works well

I have tried "vibrators", chemical repellent, alcohol, urine, and now poison. Well, this product arrived promptly in good condition and was easy to use. Something is digging holes in my garden and leaving large and small lumps of earth all over my lawn - it sure seems like a mole, but I haven't seen it yet, so maybe it isn't a mole and is resistant to these poison-laced worms, for after 3 days of putting the worms deep into the holes, there are still new large molehills today; so it seems so far not to have worked. UPDATE: one week after using 6 worms at once, there was no activity at all and this has lasted now for 7 days. So it has worked - and it maybe just was a question of increasing the dose and waiting for the poison to slowly work?

I bought every trap you can get with limited results. Got this as a last measure as there were mixed reviews. I wore gloves to handle the product and cut each worm in three. Found raised tunnels in lawn as opposed to mounds. Poked hole in the top, dropped a section of worm in and two days later not a sign of them. My garden in my new house sits atop a mole empire, mounds all over every morning. So im very happy to see none this morning. Now I'm armed for the future as I'm surrounded by fields full of them. Hate to murder animals but I want garden!

Didn’t work for us. Probably works under laboratory conditions but fails in the real world. Often found the bait in subsequent moles hills. Moles not only have a sense of humour but they are not stupid either. They are not fooled by the pretend worm that looks and feels a lot like it would be out of place in a Haribo worms bugs and spiders sweet mix.

After using three different types of trap to deal with our moles, this was the last line of defense and seemed to be reasonably simple to use. However, on receiving the product and perusing the instructions, it didn't inspire confidence. One would still need to use a probe to find the mole's through tunnel (as opposed to the side tunnel where the spoil is deposited), and a hole would still need to be dug. Having done that, there is no guarantee that a mole will come across the bait and take it, so many tries may have to be made before success occurs. And, after all that, there may be several moles to deal with. My partner was also dead set against using poison, having seen the horrible effect it can have. And indeed, the instructions say that it could take a couple of days to kill the mole. Fair enough, my aim is to kill them as the way to get rid of them, but I would like to do it with having nightmares afterwards. The clincher was that using poison on moles is illegal unless it is approved poison and only applied by trained and licensed personnel. So I returned this product unused, and unopened, for a refund. But I did get rid of the moles. The guaranteed way to achieve this is not with traps or poisons but with dry ice. Dry ice is simply solid carbon dioxide (and very, very cold), and when warmed up it will return to the gas state which happens to be heavier than air. The method is very simple: clear the soil from the mole hill until you find the hole (typically under a flap of turf) and ensure it is open, then drop some dry ice in (pellets are easier than getting chips off a block) and follow up with some water to get it back to the gaseous state. If it is working you will notice the level of gas (visible as a mist at this stage) disappearing down the hole, and if you keep replenishing as it disappears then eventually it will stop doing that. At that point the entire run is completely filled with carbon dioxide and the mole(s) will be asphyxiated. Dry ice is simple, quick and doesn't require more holes to be dug. Do it that way instead of with the traps or this poison.

I followed the instructions and found this to be very effective in the removal of moles from my lawn. I placed one worm in a tunnel that was used by the mole and within 48 hours the molehills stopped appearing.

Work great!

It worked! The moles will dig exit holes and cover them with a layer of dirt. I dug the dirt layer out with a table spoon, drop the worn in the hole and place a rock over the open hole. Next morning, lift the rock and the hole is again covered by a layer or dirt. I would remove the dirt, and the worm was gone. After 6 worms, they stopped covering the holes and the 7th worm is still in the hole.

I swear, moles have been the bane of my lawn for years. They seem to pop up new tunnels right after I knock down the old ones. I decided to try the Tomcat Mole Killer after reading that it actually looks and feels like their natural food (earthworms), and applying it was super easy. You just poke a hole in the active tunnel and drop a piece in. The good news is, I definitely saw a drop-off in new activity immediately. My usual daily tunnel patrol turned into a weekly one, which is a huge win in my book. The fact that it's designed to kill in a single feeding gives me some confidence that I'm actually dealing with the problem, not just shifting it down the lawn. Now, for full disclosure, I hit the button on this pretty late in the season, probably later than I should have. The ground is getting colder and they're slowing down anyway. So, while things look quieter now, the true test will be next spring. If I open the season tunnel-free, this stuff is getting five stars. For now, it’s a solid win for how easy it was to use and the instant slowdown in tunneling.

I have tried those death spike traps. Never had any luck, or maybe the patience for them. Tried those ultrasonic noise emitters. Not effective for me. These things…No more mole tunnels within 24-48 hours. Every time. I have a wooden dowel about 1/2” diameter. I just push through the top of the tunnel. You’ll feel it give way and then strike the bottom of the tunnel. Drop a worm down there and cover the small hole with some dirt/grass. Done. Just don’t let these sit in a hot garage. I had a package (could have been a couple years old) melt out of the tray in the sealed package. That’s my fault though.

Ordered 2 boxes. One box was good, but 2nd box worms were totally melted down. Had to open packs trying to find a good one. Must return almost empty box for this reason. Hope I get refund/ replacement requested. Kept in the house where it was cool as well. Too expensive for this to happen.
