Although commonly confused with rodents, moles are small, subterranean mammals that exist on insects, larva, and any earthworms they can get their hands on. San Jose and surrounding areas are home to multiple species of mole. These creatures can wreak havoc on local residents and businesses attempting to maintain or achieve beautiful and effective landscapes. Contact Critter Control of San Jose today for effective mole trapping and mole removal!
If your grass or garden is dying unexplainably and/or you notice small mounds of dirt appearing throughout your lawn, you could have moles. At first glance, one could confuse a mole with a rat or a mouse. However, upon closer inspection, it would seem as though this “rat” was lacking eyes and ears. Because moles normally live underground and do not utilize sight or sound as much as their other senses, there is need no need for large eyes and ears; they are almost invisible to the naked eye. Another distinguishing feature of a mole is their large front paws which are essential for the amount of time and energy used for digging.
Although moles pose minimal risk to the safety of humans, they can be devastating to lawns and landscapes that have required considerable time and money to establish. Moles create feeding tunnels back and forth in order to catch and eat grubs and earthworms. When this happens under lawns and gardens, root systems become exposed which can create irreversible damage. Because moles can dig up to 15 feet per hour, it is important to remove them from the environment as quick as possible to avoid unnecessary harm to your property.
Controlling a mole infestation effectively requires time and skill the average person just doesn’t have; but that doesn’t mean it’s the end of your beautiful landscape.

Chris came out, inspected the house, perimeter, and attic. He correctly diagnosed the issue, and set the appropriate traps in the right locations. Within a day we had caught the rat. Chris returned and set additional traps to make sure the issue had been resolved. He then closed all potential entry holes ensuring future rodents would not be able to return. Chris and Critter Control did an amazing job and I would recommend them highly. Shiri Porat2024-08-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have had a fantastic experience with Critter Control and especially with Steve. Steve was very professional and took the time to discuss the rodent problem we were facing and how we can solve it. He was very easy to communicate with, friendly, and always came on time and you could see that he really cared about helping us solve our problem. He is very experienced and explained rodent behavior really well. The rodents were trapped and we are happy being without them - thank you Steve! Katrina Smallwood2024-07-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly highly highly recommend! Michael and the team over there were completely knowledgeable, responsive, and more than helpful with our raccoon problem. While we would have loved for the raccoons to leave on their own we unfortunately needed them removed from our property. Based out of San Jose the team there works 7 days a week and we're able to respond weekends as well for trap removal. They were experts in the field and provided their knowledge and expertise to making our home and yard safe again for our young children to play in J.

Good service, on time, experts. Been using them for 20 years. Highly recommend this business. Rich Wales2021-05-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. In spite of being pretty careful about sealing up possible entry points to my house, I heard a scratching sound from a wall in my kitchen a few weeks ago. These guys came out and quickly identified the problem and found the point of entry, as well as several other possible entry points around the perimeter of my house. They set traps and gave me an estimate for repair work, which I reviewed with them in detail and then approved. Work was completed efficiently on time and very professionally. I don't envy these guys their jobs - they work in some pretty nasty conditions. But they were knowledgeable, responsible, very professional, and seemed to genuinely enjoy solving my problem. I trust that they could deal with almost any residential pest problem. Their objective is to seal up your property so nothing can get in as opposed to coming to your house to spray it with poison every month. So far so good! Kelley Wolf2021-03-19Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This company is very well organized and thorough. You are assigned one person and that person does all the inspection and follow up. Steve was very professional and courteous. The inspection was thorough and they sealed our home from rodents. It's not inexpensive but we paid half as much a few years ago to have the house rat proofed and it didn't work so we felt the investment was worth it. I found many good reviews for them online and through Nextdoor before hiring them. Steve also built custom doors for our crawlspaces which look great. Nice guys and easy to have around. I appreciated their hard work and professionalism.Google rating score: 4.9 of 5, based on 105 reviewsVerified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
