Why Talpirid Mole Bait Is Top Rated
Talpirid Mole Bait is a mole bait designed, developed, and scientifically proven to kill moles. After much research and development, Bell Labs has manufactured Talpirid Mole Bait to closely resemble the earthworm (the mole's preferred food source). Talpird Mole Bait is also the only mole bait on the market that has submitted tests to the EPA with laboratory efficacy tests on moles.
Ready to use Talpirid Mole Bait has a unique size, shape, and feel that mimics a mole's natural food source, the earthworm, and its active ingredient capitalizes on a mole's physiology. Talpirid Mole Bait has achieved outstanding acceptance and control in field and laboratory tests.
Application:
Outdoors and underground.
Make a hole in the top of the runway with a rod slightly larger than the diameter of the bait. Drop one worm into the runway, using the rod to push any exposed bait completely into the runway. Carefully reseal the runway with a small amount of dirt to exclude light.
Repeat bait application every 5 to 10 feet of each active subsurface runway.
Bait Active Runways
Make a hole in the top of the runway with a rod slightly larger than the diameter of the bait. Drop one worm into the runway, using the rod to push any exposed bait completely into the runway. Carefully reseal the runway with a small amount of dirt to exclude light. Repeat bait application every 5 to 10 feet of each active subsurface runway.
Selection of Treatment Areas
Establish Initial Activity:
Use your finger, a small wooden dowel, or a narrow rod to puncture a hole in the top of subsurface runways. Be careful not to crush runways. Mark opened runways and revisit them 48 to 72 hours later. Runways that have had holes resealed within 72 hours should be baited.
The presence of moles may be indicated by a network of subsurface runways in the turf or by a series of conical mounds of earth pushed up from deep burrows. Subsurface runways are indicated by raised ridges of vegetation and soil caused by moles foraging for food just below the soil surface. These runways are especially noticeable when the grass above them turns yellow. Conical mounds may be indicative of the location of deeper main underground runways.
Conical Mounds:
Moles construct deeper tunnels not visible from the surface. These deep tunnels systems are often marked by conical mounds (piles of dirt) 4 to 12 inches high formed when dirt is pushed to the surface when moles construct these tunnels. Push a probe, such as a broom handle, to locate deep tunnels into the soil between mounds. When the probe enters a tunnel, the resistance on the probe will decrease rapidly. Mark opened tunnels and revisit them 48 to 72 hours later. Runways that have had holes resealed within 72 hours should be baited.
Deep Tunnels
To bait deep tunnels, drop one Talpirid worm through the probe hole, using the probe to push the bait completely into the tunnel. Cover the hole with a piece of sod, a small rock, or newspaper to allow for visual inspection. Repeat bait application every 5 to 10 feet of each active deep tunnel and within 5 feet of each active conical mound. Check for the effects of treatment 5 to 7 days after bait application using the same procedure for determining tunnel location. Return 48 to 72 hours later and retreat all active tunnel systems

Shipping Restrictions | Talpirid Mole Bait can not be shipped to the southern USA states (FL GA, AL MS, LA, TX, and SC) from May-Oct because they melt in transportation. |
More Instructions | DETERMINING BAITING RESULTS: Five (5) to 7 days after bait application, check for mole activity using the same procedure for determining initial activity. Return 48 to 72 hours later and retreat all active runs. If Talpirid doesn't seem to work, consider: 1. Are you using gloves when applying the bait? 2. Are you applying product before or after a heavy rain? 3. Is a chemical insecticide or fertilizer being applied to the lawn? 4. Are you following the three-step process on the package? 5. Are you baiting properly once you find the main active run? |
