An effective solution for mole control.
Castor Bean Meal: A Natural Anti-Mole Solution
Ever heard of the castor bean meal technique? It’s often the first natural method people suggest for getting rid of moles.
Castor bean meal is essentially just a fertilizer. But it’s a fertilizer with a scent that is incredibly strong to a mole’s nose.
Imagine that a mole can smell an earthworm several inches away through the soil.
If you want to get rid of them naturally, the technique is simple:
Open the molehill’s main tunnel.
Put the castor bean meal inside.
Close the tunnel back up.
Castor bean meal is an effective way to handle moles. It’s a natural method that’s also good for your soil. Since it’s a fertilizer, you’re nourishing your garden while you’re getting rid of the moles.
Elderberry Manure to Drive Moles Away
Elderberry is a plant that produces red fruit, but it’s also a great mole repellent. It grows black berries and is very common along wild paths.
You can buy elderberry manure at a store to get moles out of your garden, but you can also make it yourself.
The recipe for this anti-mole solution is very easy:
Chop up 1 kg of fresh elderberry leaves.
Put the leaves in 10 liters of water. The more finely the leaves are chopped, the better it will work.
Mix for a solid ten minutes and leave the mixture in the dark.
Wait one week, then come back to collect your mole repellent.
Big box stores will advertise their products to you, but you can easily make this at home in a week. It’s free, 100% natural, and it works—moles hate the smell.
All you have to do is open the molehills and pour it in carefully so you don’t drown the mole. They won’t tolerate the smell for long and will eventually leave your garden.
Moles can’t see, but their sense of smell is excellent, so you have to use this to your advantage to get rid of them.
Your Pet's Hair in the Molehill
This third technique is very effective if you have a dog!
You know that moles have predators, ranging from dogs and foxes to wild cats or nocturnal birds of prey.
And the mole is well aware that it’s not the strongest creature in your garden. It hears you walking on its molehills or just walking in your yard, and it knows there are predators nearby.
The technique for naturally getting rid of moles is to use your dog’s or cat’s hair.
Be careful, the mole might simply dig a new tunnel instead of leaving your yard.
In this case, you’ll need to put dog hair in the new mole tunnels or try the next technique.
Using a Solar Vibrator in the Tunnels
Not familiar with solar vibrators?
They’re actually very simple: it’s a vibrating stake that you drive into the mole’s tunnel.
On top of the stake, there’s a small solar panel, so it works without batteries, which is why it can be considered a natural method for getting rid of moles.
The method requires no traps, no poison, just solar energy.
Moles use their tails to feel vibrations in the ground. A vibration can quickly feel like a threat to a mole, which rarely leaves its tunnels.
They won’t tolerate these vibrations for long and will eventually move on. To make sure you get rid of the mole, put several solar vibrators on your property and you’ll be worry-free.
Regularly Blocking the Moles' Tunnels
The fifth natural technique for getting rid of moles is to regularly disturb them.
Find the perfect kit to solve your mole problem for good.
Yes, this will require consistent effort, but it’s very easy to do.
Put stones in the mole tunnels, block them, or pierce them and let light into the tunnels. By constantly bothering the moles, they will eventually leave your property.
This technique should be used if you truly haven’t found anything else that works, but I’d be surprised if that were the case.
Ultrasounds to Get Rid of Moles
The sixth technique is natural in the sense that it doesn’t harm your soil or the natural environment. It involves buying ultrasonic devices and placing them in the molehills.
Anti-mole ultrasonic devices are easy to find in supermarkets or hardware stores.
As you know, moles can’t see, but they can smell and hear. And what they hate to hear are ultrasounds. If you have a large yard and a lot of moles, I recommend you place several ultrasonic diffusers to be sure to cover the entire area and get rid of the moles naturally.
You won’t hear them; the moles, mice, rats, and other small animals will, but we humans don’t have the same hearing.
So, this is a technique that doesn’t require any products or environmental damage, but it works well for chasing moles off your property.
Make Your Own Vibrator to Get the Mole Out of Your Garden
The 7th technique is to make your own vibrator!
You’re probably thinking it’s complicated, that you don’t know how to do it…
Let me explain—it’s very simple.
In point 4, we talked about getting rid of moles with a solar vibrator.
This time, to get moles out of your garden, we’ll use wind energy. This is yet another natural method that works.
All you need to do is plant a spike, a stick, or a thin piece of wood in the mole’s tunnel and have it stick out about 1 meter from the ground.
On the end sticking out of the ground, you push on a plastic bottle. The wind will make it move, which will create noise throughout the mole’s tunnel.
It will eventually move to a different garden because of this noise. This technique is natural, it uses the energy of the wind to get moles out of your property.
And it’s very simple to set up, so give it a try or move on to the eighth technique!
Digging Up the Mole and Relocating It
I’m sure you’ve already thought of this technique!
You can do whatever you want, but if the mole persists, it means your garden is a pleasant place to be.
If you really want to get rid of the mole, you can get it out of its tunnel! Yes, this is a technique few people use, but all you have to do is take a shovel and dig up the entire tunnel.
Keep digging until you find the mole, or all the moles if you have several.
Then, grab it with a glove—don’t let it bite you.
And release it in a forest.
It’s possible that the moles will always come back to your place because your land is so good. In this case, you can check out the training courses on our site that will explain in detail how to put an end to this.
Let's Debunk a Misconception About Moles
People make you believe that putting pieces of glass in mole tunnels kills them.

Moles are not hemophiliacs, contrary to what everyone says! At worst, you’ll give them scratches on their paws; at best, they’ll just push the pieces of glass away.
Don’t waste your time with this “miracle technique for chasing moles out of your garden.” This miracle technique doesn’t work.
