Moles may be among one of the cuter pests, but this doesn\u2019t mean that they won\u2019t cause significant damage to your property.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

While it\u2019s unlikely they\u2019ll ever make their way into your home, their underground tunnels can ruin your garden. If you\u2019ve noticed mounds of excavated soil on your lawn or destroyed flowerbeds, it\u2019s likely you have a mole infestation<\/a>.<\/div>\n
The question you\u2019re likely to be asking is \u2018how long will moles live in a garden?\u2019<\/div>\n
Moles live for an average of three years. Providing there\u2019s a plentiful supply of food and they\u2019re being left undisturbed, there\u2019s no reason why they won\u2019t stay put for most of their lives.<\/div>\n
This means that how long a mole lives in your garden is entirely down to you. If you would rather your garden stays intact, there are a number of ways you can encourage these pests to move on.<\/div>\n
