Moles
Moles, small burrowing mammals, are commonly found in the Southeastern United States, including Georgia. These subterranean animals are distinguished by their cylindrical bodies, strong forelimbs, and specialized digging abilities. Although moles are beneficial for soil aeration and pest control by feeding on insects and larvae, their burrowing can create problems for homeowners. In the Southeast, mole tunnels can damage lawns and gardens, resulting in unsightly mounds and compromising the integrity of landscaping.
PestNation understands the issues associated with mole infestations and offers professional solutions to address these problems effectively. Our services are designed to identify and manage mole populations, ensuring a well-maintained and pest-free environment for Southeast residents. By using environmentally friendly methods, PestNation aims to manage mole problems while preserving the balance of the surrounding ecosystem.
Types of Moles
The Southeastern United States is home to several mole species, each with distinct characteristics and adaptations. The Eastern Mole (Scalopus aquaticus) is a common sight, known for its velvety fur, spade-like forelimbs, and cylindrical body. Another species, the Hairy-tailed Mole (Parascalops breweri), is recognized by its long, bushy tail and impressive digging capabilities. Although these moles play a positive role in soil health by feeding on insects and larvae, their burrowing can create issues for homeowners.
PestNation is prepared to manage mole infestations effectively, offering professional solutions tailored to the specific traits and behaviors of these subterranean mammals. Our services are designed to maintain a well-kept and pest-free environment for Southeast residents, using environmentally friendly methods to address mole concerns while preserving the natural balance of the ecosystem.
