Witham has a town centre, retail areas, a railway station, industrial units, newer estates and farmland close by. Moles do not care which of these they are under. Landscaped verges, office lawns and back gardens can all be dug up, and we trap them wherever the signs show a mole is at work in Witham.
Whether you look after a garden of your own or the grass around a unit, the first step is the same. We examine the hills and ridges, decide where the main tunnels run, and tell you plainly what we plan to do and how long it is likely to take.

Business parks and housing estates are often planted with sizeable areas of mown grass, and a few trees, in front of or around buildings. Where that grass is next to a field margin or a railway embankment, moles can move in unseen. For a company, a hill-covered lawn looks untidy to visitors and can foul the mowers used by the grounds maintenance contractor, which adds to the cost of upkeep.
Domestic lawns show the same pattern on a smaller scale. Fresh cones of soil, a line of hills and ridged turf suggest a main run. Witham grounds that back onto farmland tend to see it first, though even a garden in the middle of an estate can attract a mole that has followed worms along a green strip between roads or footpaths.
We confirm that moles are responsible, then trace the main run. Traps are placed in it, the opening is covered and we come back regularly to check them. Each visit we tell you what has been caught, whether a run has gone quiet, and when we plan to return. We keep a note of where every piece of equipment is placed so that none is left behind.
On commercial sites in Witham we can arrange access around opening times and keep the area safe for staff and visitors, using clear marking where needed. Moles never enter buildings, so work stays outdoors. If a ground contractor mows the grass, we let you pass on where hills and traps are so nothing is disturbed by accident and the work stays tidy.
Once the trapping is done, flatten the hills, use the soil to fill dips and reseed worn areas. Firm down tunnels where the surface sounds hollow. On business grounds, ask your contractor to fit the repair into the next grass cut. We also cover Braintree and Maldon if you manage more than one site, and we are happy to talk through each one.

Fresh mounds of loose soil are the classic sign of a mole, but a few other things can look similar, so it pays to check properly.

If new molehills keep appearing after you have cleared the old ones, the cause is usually food, soft soil and a tunnel network that never really goes away.

Most household pests leave clues behind, and learning to read droppings, damage, noises and timing will help you decide what you are dealing with and what to do next.
Read the guide →Yes. We work around your opening times, mark trap locations clearly and keep a record of what we do. Moles never enter buildings, so everything is outside on the grass and soil, and your staff do not need to change how they work.
It can. Mowing spreads loose soil and dulls blades, and it hides the fresh heaps that show us which runs are active. Please ask them to leave the hills until trapping is finished, then flatten them together once the lawn has settled.
Fresh heaps stop appearing and ridges stop rising after being pressed down. We check the traps regularly and tell you what we find. If heaps return later, call us and we will look at the runs again and see whether a newcomer has moved in.
Tell us what you have found and roughly where it is. We will come back to you — or call 01245 327 274 if it is urgent.
