Dallas Mole & Gopher Control Services

Rodent Control Experts You Can Trust

We understand that your yard is the front face of your home. It is the first thing others see when they come over, and the first thing that you see when you return home from work. After putting in the time and effort to make sure your lawn and garden are attractive, it can be frustrating when moles or gophers cause damage. 

There are several signs that you may have been visited by these underground pests:

• Molehills or Gopher mounds. Like ants, as moles and gophers tunnel, they get rid of the dirt. Moles are most active during the day. Mounds for deeper tunnels or runway mazes for the subsurface tunnels can seemingly spring up in a single day.
• Tunnels, which look like lines through your yard, can sometimes be seen, even when underground.
• Dead plants and grass can be an indicator of moles’ burrowing activity. As moles’ dig they push plants and grass up, damaging root systems.

Our specialists use a combination of a machine called the Burrow RX and mole repellent. Both of these methods are kid and pet-friendly and don’t result in any odor in your yard after the removal of these pests.

Determining the Type of Pest Invading Your Yard

Many Dallas-area homeowners don’t have the tools or experience to handle a mole or gopher infestation. ABC’s trained professionals will identify the type of rodent digging around your home and evict moles, gophers, or any other type of pest that might be causing unsightly dirt mounds.

Key differences between Moles & Gophers:

• Gophers look very similar to squirrels without the fluffy tails. They spend most of their time underground and come out at night as they are nocturnal animals. 
  • Gopher mounds look like small piles of dirt that have been plugged up. Although gophers are solitary animals, they can dig over 200 mounds per year. 

• Moles are smaller with a very distinct look: tiny eyes, a slim, pointed snout, and paddle-like feet with claws made for digging. They mostly live life underground and rarely come out of their burrows.
  • Molehills are dug closer to the surface and create tunnels that can cause ridges above ground connecting from hill to hill.
