The 8 Best Mole Traps
Special Honors
Trapline Standard Compared to most others, the Trapline Standard is positively tiny, but don't worry, as this works in your favor. It slides neatly into a tunnel and doesn't require mounding any dirt, so moles are likely to run right into it with no idea that anything is amiss. Each is made for repeated use, too. traplineproducts.com
Editor's Notes
September 29, 2019:
We've kept a range of traps at this time, but we continue to omit mole poisons and ultrasonic repellers. The former are dangerous to pets and not legal for public sale in some areas, while the latter have not been conclusively proven to work. As for what does work, the Wire Tek 1001 Eliminator and the Nash Choker Loop remain on top. We've also added the Harris Easy Set. It is an easy-to-handle model, like the Eliminator, making it a good option for those who worry about pinching their fingers. The Harris model is less expensive than the Eliminator, though, as it is more plastic than heavy-duty metal. No matter which you choose, you should consider wearing a sturdy pair of work gloves, both when you're setting it and when it comes to disposing of the mole.
