An animal-friendly solution for molehills
Mole hills are often an eyesore and cause a great deal of damage to lawns. To combat these mole hills in an animal-friendly way, RootBarrier® mole protection can be installed both horizontally and vertically. The mole protection is installed horizontally up to 5 cm and vertically 50 cm to 1 m below the lawn.
This means that when the mole digs, it comes up against the mole netting, preventing it from digging any further.
Frequently asked questions
What causes a molehill?
Moles are useful animals in the garden and on its menu are a lot of pests and insects, which is an advantage for garden owners. However, moles do have their own idea of gardening and landscaping.
In fact, with their powerful front legs they can dig whole systems of tunnels under the ground and with their back legs they work this soil away. They push the excess soil upwards, creating a molehill. They then use the molehill for an exit, looking for nesting material on the earth's surface. These molehills are often an eyesore and cause a lot of damage to lawns.
