    Q
    Moles in the winter? In Connecticut! Bought some Talpirid, will it work?
    Piles of dirt scattered in areas! Weird for this time of year?
    A
    Talpirid Bait should not be applied or stored in exreme temperatures. You will want to observe the areas of dirt that appears to be the active tunnel. You then can apply the Talpirid Bait with gloved hands into active areas. Per the manufacturer, 'Use your finger, 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 wihin 72 hours should be baited.

    I have 2 dogs and there is bunnies that live around my yard . I need something that is safe for them to be around . My neighbor has moles,voles . I think they came from his yard .
    A
    There are different ways you can treat moles vs voles. We recommend to first pin down if indeed this rodent is either a mole or vole.  Please see our Vole control page and Mole Control Page once the rodent has been determined we can make an accurate recommendation for you.

  • Asked by Ltc from Marietta, Ga
    10/09/2012
    Q
    How many worms per tunnel; or sq ft, etc., is applied? I don't
    I have no idea of how many worms to order.
    A
    You will need to bait every 5 to 10 feet of each active subsurface runway. With Mole bait the amount of tunnels will be what determines how much bait you will require. Most folks need about 10-20 worms per treatment depending on the number of tunnels/moles present. Each box of Talprid comes with 20 worms.

    Q
    Can you cut the Talpirid worms in half or pieces to get more coverage ?
    This is my camp up in the Laural Highlands of Penna. I go here about 0nce per month in the winter it has been a very mild winter and these mole runs are everywhere when I go up . Last fall it started and bent the blade on my mower on mole mound. I need to get rid of these things by spring. Its all woods around the house. Should I get a case of this stuff or what ?
    A

    The Talpirid Mole Bait is meant to be used whole. We do not recommend cutting the worms into pieces because you may wind up cutting the bait into pieces that are not large enough to deliver a fatal dose of the poison to the moles. As long as the tunnels are active and you are following the Talpirid product label instructions you should have success getting rid of the moles with this product.

    Q
    Is Talpirid harmful to cats? How long do I have to keep my cats inside after using the bait?
    A
    When applied according to the Talpirid product label the bait will be under ground and should be inaccessible to your cats. The cats only need to be out of the area while you are actually putting the bait out. You should keep stored bait out of reach of the cats.

    Wet conditions in the rain forest with Talpirid Mole Bait?
    How effective will it be in very wet conditions? Fall is upon us and we live in Eastern Washington.
    A
    Talpirid BAIT will remain effective, even in rainy conditions for at least 30 days.  Also, this product should be placed in the ground in an active run so it should not be exposed to direct moisture from rain.

    Q
    What is the best season to treat for moles using Talpirid?
    Now that we are closing on on fall, is it worth the expense to try to rid my yard now or better to wait till spring?
    A
    Moles do not hibernate during the winter and you may find a lot of damage to your yard if you put off eliminating them now while they are still active. We recommend getting rid of moles whenever you see activity on your property.

    Q
    How do I determine how many Talpirid worms I may need?
    A
    This will depend entirely on how many moles you have on your property. Most customers with a light-medium infestation start with one Talpirid BAIT box, customers with a heavy infestation usually purchase two boxes.

    Q
    Is use of bromethalin safe to use for gopher/mole control near or in a vegetable garden
    Is it carcinogenic? What is it's half life? Is it taken up into the plant, will it contaminate the soil and food from garden?
    A
    Bromethalin is the active ingredient in many rodent control products. Without knowing the specific product you are requesting information on we can only give you general answers. Bromethalin does not move through the soil and is not taken up systemically into plants. Bromethalin products cannot be used in a vegetable garden but instead should be used around the outside perimeter of the garden for mole/gopher control. Talpirid is the only Bromethalin product that we carry that is labeled for mole control and it will only last for about 14 days when used as directed on the product label.

  • Asked by Vikki
    03/07/2011
    Q
    Is Talpirid safe for pets?
    I have cats which love to catch moles.
    A

    Talpirid Mole Bait, when used directed on the product label, will be applied to areas that will for the most part be inaccessible to non-target animals. In most cases, moles that consume the bait will die under ground in their tunnels eliminating the worry that cats or other predatory animals will eat the carcass. Most well fed pets such as cats do not consume dead animals that they find, instead they tend to "play" with it. An animal the size of a cat would have to consume many dead moles for there to be any concern of secondary poisoning.
