Moles in Puyallup: DIY Local Guide

 This guide explains how moles behave specifically in the Puyallup region. Soil in the valley is deep and easy to move through, which encourages long tunnel networks and year round activity. 

•  High moisture retention 
• Worm heavy soils 
• Large open lawns 
• Mild winters 
• Residential areas next to farms and wooded land
   

Moles in Puyallup often travel along fence lines, garden borders, and buried irrigation lines.

•  A single mound that multiplies rapidly 
• Ridges forming beneath the grass 
• Soft hollows around flower beds 
• Tunnels appearing overnight
   

These signs indicate an active feeding route rather than a random visit.

•  Heavy Fall rains 
• Deep clay and loam layers 
• Warm winters 
• Abundant earthworms 
• Frequent irrigation in suburban neighborhoods
   

Mole behavior varies throughout the year, but tunnel maintenance never fully stops.
