Our roots date back to 1986 when Jerry Kozak first noticed mole hills in his suburban yard. Over the next three years, he ineffectively experimented with several forms of mole control.
Jerry would wait on his porch early every morning with a coffee in one hand, and a sledge hammer in the other looking to kill moles which were destroying his lawn and garden. With no success, he tried using household solvents and other "repellents" such as castor beans -- the only result being a healthy crop of castor bean sprouts!
Tired of the more passive approaches, he decided to start "cooking with gas" -- literally. He cleared the whole family from the house and proceeded to run acetylene gas in an underground tunnel for about 20 minutes. He carefully placed a lit match into the tunnel of gas, blowing apart the vast majority of his front lawn. Nothing could have made these moles happier as they dug 3 new hills that night.
Completely frustrated, he called a professional trapper and was told that the charge would be $200 with no guarantee of success. Unwilling to spend that kind of money with no guarantee of success, he decided to try trapping the moles himself.
Jerry tried several traps over the next few months with no success. Until one sunny morning, he triumphantly held up the mole that had been terrorizing his yard for the last 3 years. He became so efficient at killing moles in his yard with mole traps, that they quickly ceased being a problem.
Having confidence in his newly found skill, he announced in 1990 that he was going to start trapping moles professionally. After handing out flyers and putting up signs in local nurseries, his venture was immediately in demand. Many homeowners in the area were struggling with the same problem of garden moles and lawn moles destroying their beautifully manicured lawns and gardens. The next year was even busier when word surfaced that somebody who cared about customer satisfaction and service was trapping moles in their area.
Through personal and business contacts, he put into action a plan that would enable people to purchase this mole trap system directly through the internet for a low cost. Since then, we have been providing high-quality products, great service, and low prices to lawn and gardening enthusiasts who are looking for mole control for their own mole problems.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Our traps arrived yesterday, we watched the video, set the traps, and had our mole by morning. :)

"I received my 5 traps and the video on Friday. I saw the video, set my traps and went to the movies. I came home two hours later and I caught my first mole! I am so excited. The video sample yard can't compare to the activity I have.
My soil is like a peat bog: soft, black dirt and grass (and weeds). I have had mole activity for the 28 years I have lived here but only in one area. This year I decided I would use Grub Control on my 1/2 acre back yard. I woke up a sleeping giant! Now my whole back yard it tore up. That's when I did the research on the internet and came across your company. I printed out and read everything on your web site. I am now very knowledgeable about moles, thanks to you!”

"I am usually a relatively sane, reasonable and calm person. But a mole problem started to relieve me of my sanity. A few mole hills in my lawn was a minor annoyance at first. I've had mole hills in previous years but they seemed to go away. But this year, for some reason, I couldn't get rid of the mole. I would stamp one hill down and another one would appear. After about the tenth mole hill I got very irritated. I knew it wasn't rational to let a mole upset me but it did. Over a three month period I tried Gopher Gassers, two types of traps, putting a water hose down the mole tunnel and other non-effective remedies.
My frustration led me to do an internet search. I looked at 4 or 5 sites including Molepro. I liked the Molepro site because of the information it gave about moles and mole traps. The site seemed more focused on educating consumers and less on pushing a product, which is the approach I prefer. With a money back guarantee I knew I had nothing to lose. I was tempted to get just the traps without the video because I thought I could figure it out. But I think that would have been a mistake. The video explained how and where to set the traps. I think my problem with the other traps I used is that I didn't really understand how to use them.
I received the traps, listened to the video a couple of times and set the traps the next Saturday. Nothing happened for a few days so I moved the traps. The next morning I saw that a trap had sprung. I pulled it out and my little friend came out with it. Who's crying now?
People without a mole problem do not understand the aggravation I felt trying to get rid of the mole. They also do not understand the great satisfaction of pulling out a trap with a mole between the pincers. I was so delighted I had my wife take a picture. I was thinking of using the picture for our Christmas cards but my wife said no.
I gladly endorse a product that works as well as advertised. I could go on and on but my wife has told me to shut up and put it behind me. I've already referred two people to Molepro.

"I'm the mole man!!!
Place the traps after work yesterday once I watched the video. My wife doubted it would work. My kids couldn't wait to see me set the traps. I got my daughter up for school and we went out to check the traps. We caught one! Nothing like sharing those memories with your kids.
I finally feel like I am ahead on these guys. Thanks Mole Pro"
