“Mak completely eliminated my mole problem. Consistently professional and kind, he has made the process so easy and noninvasive. I’m so grateful to get my yard back from the pesky moles. Thank you Mole Busters!”

— Cyndi Dahl

“Mole Busters was our answer to our mole problem in our newly installed lawn sod. Mak was very conscientious, came weekly, over a period of about two months, until there was no more mole activity. Great communicator, letting us know when he was coming each week and reporting back what he found. Recommend this service highly for dependable and dogged mole service!”

— Deborah Letourneau

Two legitimate residential choices

Resolve today's problem or plan for recurring activity

Moles Gone in 30 Days is the primary choice for an active problem, especially without a history of recurring episodes. Mole Dominator is the alternative when new mole problems keep returning. A subscription is not required after MG30.

Moles Gone in 30 Days Guaranteed

$499 flat rate

For qualifying residential service areas up to one acre. Larger properties receive a custom quote. Includes setup, weekly service and adjustments to resolve the covered active mole problem.

After equipment removal, you have seven days of free callback coverage. A 90-day discounted return-service period follows completion. New moles can enter later; this is not a promise of permanent exclusion.

Full guarantee, callback and return-service terms

Mole Dominator — Ongoing Mole Control

$98 /month

For ongoing or recurring mole problems. Choose $299 startup plus $98/month, cancel anytime, or $98/month with startup waived under a 12-month agreement.

Early cancellation under the 12-month agreement carries a $299 fee. We explain both options and confirm the service scope before you decide.

Ongoing service and full agreement terms

How our poison-free mole trapping service works

  1. Tell us about the activity. Contact Mak and Maleah with your address, fresh-activity photos and property history.
  2. Locate active tunnels. We examine the property and identify the runs the moles are using.
  3. Install targeted mole traps. We place equipment in the agreed service area with precautions suited to the property.
  4. Return weekly. We inspect the property, check traps and adjust placements as activity changes.
  5. Confirm the result. Following a catch, we monitor for seven consecutive days without new mole activity before removing equipment.
  6. Follow through under the guarantee. If the covered active problem takes longer than 30 days, we continue at no additional service charge until it is resolved, subject to the service terms.

Tell us about pets, children, irrigation, locked gates and other access restrictions before setup so equipment can be placed with appropriate precautions. Leave installed equipment undisturbed and keep children and pets away from it.

Your guide to getting rid of moles in Milwaukie

Show Mak and Maleah where fresh soil meets the lawn, sidewalk or planted drainage area. We will separate the active mole problem from other landscape-maintenance needs. Moles Gone in 30 Days is the primary choice for resolving a current active problem with weekly follow-up and a result-based guarantee. Mole Dominator is the alternative for ongoing or recurring episodes. The local guidance below helps you describe your own property; Mak and Maleah confirm the affected area and service choice with you before you agree to work.

Understand your local property

A frontage planting may have a different maintainer

Milwaukie’s completed Home and Wood Avenue project gives a concrete example of split responsibility: adjacent homeowners maintain specified landscaping, while the city maintains the new swales. If fresh soil appears along that type of frontage, show us the curb, sidewalk and sunken bed as well as the mound. Confirm which ground you can authorize us to service.

Do not assume that the planted strip, street-side basin and private lawn are one continuous work area. A short marked photograph helps prevent a service setup from interfering with a public facility or a neighbor’s access. We can focus the quote on the actual maintained ground rather than the appearance of the whole frontage.

Practical homeowner tips

Lake Road’s surfaces are designed to handle runoff

The city’s Lake Road project information describes porous paving and stormwater planters on side streets where feasible. Those features should not be treated as places to sweep loose soil or rinse mound material away. Before tidying fresh activity, take a close photo and a wider view that shows the adjacent hardscape.

This is useful whether the damage appears in lawn, mulch or a narrow bed. We discuss mole activity and the serviceable landscape; we do not repair porous pavement, alter a planter’s shape or guarantee improved drainage. A blocked inlet or recurring standing water should be reported as a separate condition.

Local details that matter

Kellogg Creek work does not diagnose the neighboring lawn

Milwaukie’s Kellogg Creek project describes public stream and floodplain restoration linked to bridge and dam work. That project provides local context, not evidence of a particular household’s mole problem or a reason to disturb a creek bank. Identify where your private maintained lawn stops and where any public or shared corridor begins.

For the service decision, record the dates of fresh activity and any previous quiet periods. One present problem can fit MG30, while a record of separate repeat episodes may support Mole Dominator. Your location near a restoration project does not automatically mean you need ongoing service, and we do not invent a connection between construction and the activity on your lot.

Residential lawns and managed grounds

Gopher control is a free add-on to any Oregon mole service. Tell us about plant damage as well as mounds so we can discuss the right problem. For HOA grounds, rental communities, schools or business landscapes, commercial mole control is scoped separately. We confirm the exact address and maintained area before recommending service.

Milwaukie property questions

What happens after I send the property form?

Your inquiry goes to Mak and Maleah. We discuss the address, current activity, property size and access, confirm availability and explain the service scope and terms before you decide.

What if the active problem takes longer than 30 days?

Under MG30, we continue at no additional service charge until it is resolved. After a catch, seven consecutive days without new activity confirm resolution before equipment removal. Seven days of free callback coverage follow removal, with a 90-day discounted return-service period afterward.

Do I have to choose an ongoing agreement?

No. MG30 addresses the current active problem. Mole Dominator is a separate choice for ongoing or recurring problems. Review its startup and agreement options before choosing; it is not a required follow-on purchase.

Can you work in a planted strip beside the sidewalk?

First identify its owner and function. Send a photo of the entire frontage and tell us whether it is private landscaping, shared ground or a city-maintained swale. We agree on an authorized service area.

Should I wash soil from the curb into the drain?

No. Keep loose material out of drainage features and document the fresh activity before cleanup. We will assess the mole problem without altering the stormwater feature.

Does the Kellogg Creek project change my service guarantee?

No. The MG30 service terms remain the approved terms for qualifying properties. Public restoration work does not establish a customer infestation or change the offer; tell us about the conditions on your own lawn.
