Victor Easy-to-Set DeadSet Mole Trap, Underground Mole Killer for Lawns and Outdoor Spaces

Several times a year we have a mole problem and have tried other products that did not succeed. We have no pets or little curious children around daily to worry about them trying to pull the trap up. This Victor Mole Trap is made of heavy duty Construction and has stood up to the task.. We followed the instructions as recommended. First we watered the lawn around the active areas This will make it much better to set the trap This trap is set off by the Slightest movement This also keeps the food supply lower to the ground for the moles. Then we made a 2"hole in the raised ground thru to the tunnel. We waited 1 day then set the trap. We monitor it frequently and move the trap when necessary. Sometimes it's hit or miss. It depends on activity or the depth of the tunnels.. We noticed that it works best after watering the lawn or a heavy rain. Activity is slow right now. We recommend this product to our friends.

So there no issue so far because I have only try it once.

I have been dealing with moles in my yard for years and have tried almost everything you can think of, even chewed juicy fruit gum which they can't digest. I have one of the metal spring traps, but it is very hard to set. I have killed 3 moles already with this product and it is so much easier to set. The only thing I would change is the length of the foot tabs on the sides. I would make them longer to be able to be used to help push it down into harder soil with your feet.

I've had traps before from other brands. It was always a hassle trying to get them set. It seemed they were always triggering right as I walked away. Victor's Deadset trap doesnt have that issue. It is extremely easy to set and has had zero "false" triggers. It's a sturdy product made of durable plastic and so far has been reliable.

This mole trap is really cool, and almost mid evil in the way it gets the job done, but it does the job. Not recommended for the weak or those who dont like gruesome stuff, but it will get the job done. It is very easy to use and set! I would recommend multiple of these for anyone with Mole problems

This Victor Deadset Mole Trap is of decent size and easy to set. It comes with full easy instructions to set the trap and also provides a website to go to, to watch a video of the installation which is actually not needed since the unit is easy to insert. Although it is advertised as a trap it does actually kill the rodent with spears, so if you are concerned about killing the rodent then this trap is not for you. I know some people would rather trap the animal and release it in the woods or a different location where the rodent will not be a pest to their property. However, if this is not a concern to you then this device seems to be a good source of ending your pest problem once and for all. The spears are in the ground so this would not be harmful to children or pets unless they are digging in the location where the trap is placed. I set this up yesterday. As of now, the trap has not been triggered but I have high expectations that this will be the answer to my pest problem.

One of the most effective traps i have tried so far. Very simple and easy to use. Comes with instructions on the package how and where and when to plant the trap with good tips. I have seen moles detecting the trap and borrowing below it. If your moles are over 1.5 inches down this will not get them.

I had an older version of a trap like this that was nearly impossible to set because of the physical strength required. I bought this one and was very happy with it. Hold it down with your feet on the protruding tabs, large handle to pull up, easy. However, after the third time I moved it to a mole problem site, it would not set no matter what I did. It was like trying to pull start a dead lawnmower. Am returning it for refund. I think it is a great design and these traps are effective on active mole tunnels; I was obviously using it on inactive ones, kind of hard to tell the difference, but I would have got him eventually. I'm hoping this one was just defective so I can order another and continue the battle. I will not use poison pellets because of the foxes, hawks and owls in my area that could die from eating a poisoned mole.

I hve done lots of reaearch on products to quell the mole/vole issues. These have popped up online. they are a bit tricky. you have to really reasearch the "active" tunnels and then set and watch/move. they also are very touchy. i cover with a milkcrate as birds and other motion can set them off. Been using and moving 2mo. no catch/kills.

product caame broken. no handle attached, so unable to activate
