Gopher and mole repeller pegs contain a mix of soybean oil and garlic that, when dropped down a hole, "blast" the animals’ tunnels with an offensive smell that drives them away.

Works well.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
In our ongoing battle with moles and gophers, I was excited by this product because it's tidy, easy-to-use, long-lasting, and biodegrades. I have to admit, I have only just started using them in the last few months, so I can't yet attest to the long-lasting part. But from the initial activity leaving the yard and no activity for awhile, it's clear I've got them on the run! Be sure and put them deep enough into the ground (follow instructions carefully). I was in a hurry on one and knew it wasn't deep enough, and sure thing—the next day the stake was sitting on top outside! That's only happened once, though, and my fault. We were very amused about it. I'd recommend folks try this product.

Only worked for one to two months instead of twelve.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
The mole that is digging up my yard and garden definitely did not like the garlic pellets. We waged a war. As soon as I dropped them down into the tunnel, the mole threw them out onto the ground. The problem: Since you dig into the tunnel behind the mole, who is at the front of his tunnel, the offensive items behind him just drove him to dig further into my yard. I used the entire package and now the animal is almost up to the house!

Eventhough the product didn't claim to work for voles I thought I would try it. It didn't they dug right over it unearthing the case. It may work for moles, I'm not posistive, the mole we have just seems to keep digging new tunnels everywhere.

Moles just threw the repellent up out of the holes.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
I had a yard full of dirt mounds from moles. These repellent items appear to be working well as I have only a few new holes which I treated as soon as they were spotted. My lawn looks better now without the mounds of dirt from these pests.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
This product doesn't seem to bother moles. They continue to dig tunnels in the same area as the garlic smell.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
i put about ten of these things in the moles run and he is still tunneling in that same place. seems like this product is not working at all.

I use the product for MOLE control - it REALY works
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
The ground hogs absolutely hated this product. We are down to two active tunnels. With this product, we hope to have moved them out of our immediate area.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
Although the ground hog holes are less and less. I still need to use wire when planting. The rodents seem to just change locations and not "go to a far away location".
I do like the theory if only more effective. Next step; barn cats.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
It's difficult to use because locating the tunnel can be difficult
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
The repelers are easy to use even a caveman could use them. Poke a hole drop in tube cover hole with dirt your done. Within two days we had no more signs of any mole activity.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
After Two weeks and use of almost all of the 12 Repellers I have not experienced any positive results.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
easy placement wearing gloves. Moles seem to have moved from the area. Shared product with my neighbor and the moles seem to have vanished from his yard too.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
I dropped these pegs into many holes and am not sure how many fell to their sides to emit an order. I am afraid several got covered by falling dirt and sand. There was no evidence that they worked, but I had many moles so one or two may have left.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
Put in four mounds after finding the tunnel, so far no reaccuring ground digging - Pleased with product
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:

Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
Moles have moved on after dropping the container in their holes. It works.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
The moles that were making tunnels all over our yard have seemed to have gone elsewhere. It doesn't smell very well, but, then again, if it smelled pleasant it probably wouldn't be effective.

Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
This is working. Groundhogs ruined my garden last year. This year I used the gopher repeller in May and it is working great. If it really does last 10 to 12 months then I'll clearly get through the growing season and maybe keep them away in the fall. I recommend keeping these in a shed or garage as they do smell a bit even before you uncork them.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
I have put these things in every straight line tunnel and they just go right over it again and again.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
In an attempt to have a pocket gopher relocate outside of our yard, I used 5 containers of this product, 2 of which the gopher returned along with his new tunneling extract. It is obvious the garlic and oil had little effect on this critter... I might just as well added the pasta and provided him a meal. I'm afraid I'll have to resort to the gas to get the little sucker out of there.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
They are moving their burrows so I think they will eventually leave for less smelly ground.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
Great product to get rid of mole without killing them.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
I live in a rural area on five acres surrounded by woods. My front and back yard is a little over an acre. Last year, the mounds in my yard were everywhere from the moles. I purchased the mole repellers in April and placed them in every tunnel throughout my yard. A month later, there are no moles and my yard looks great. I love this product!!!
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
It seems to have worked wonderfully. I have been watching and it seems that the moles do not like the smell at all. They have all scrammed!!

Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
The repellers DID NOT work for us! We did just as the instructions said, and we STILL are dealing with the moles! They are EVERYWHERE! It was worth it to use these to try and get rid of them, but they just did not work- in fact, we found one on the outside of a mole hill like the moles had pushed in out.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
We KNOW gophers don't LIKE the smell...didn't cover 2 holes good enough and the devils threw the capsules back out into the yard. Seems the critters are moving away from the garlic-ed areas. Might work GREAT in a smaller yard...we have an acre so can't really tell. Worth a try for us...we have a small dog so NO poison!
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
Works as advertised and safe for our pets--three dogs, two cats!
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
We had great results with this item last season and will continue to use it every year. Ground moles are very well established in our area and we have tried everything to rid our yard of them and this product is the best we have found to control them. We have a dog and we are very careful about what we put in our yard and with this product we feel very safe. We have over an acre of lawn and gardens and this really does work
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
we have 2 small children and live on a waterfront property so we so not want to use chemicals. The garlic mole repellers have not worked. The moles have continued to be active in the treated areas as well nearby the treated areas. I have applied a lot of them, hoping a higher concentration would work, but no success so far.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
The gopher and mole repellant was so simple to use and so far......no more pests!

Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
I used the product as directed. The first application in May seemed to work about 3 months. I mixed it up with poison worms by TomCat. I must have the most persistent moles They no longer take the poison worms. And now the moles actully started pushing the smell vials out of the tunnel to the top of the ground. (just started today. Found two out and they rerun the tunnel) Now they run with new tunnels every day, and in every direction. They now hit places which I have never had them before. I know they come from the neighbors who do not maintain a much of a yard, and then they pick a spot in which to start burrowing, usually along the edging and away they go. Is there anything else you would suggest?

It's great...enough said.

I stick these things down in holes made by moles, voles or gophers and it doesn't appear that they come back through those openings.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
Used it to get rid of moles and it did absolutely nothing. As usual, too good to be true. Just blew my hard earned money. I hate being ripped off but will learn someday.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
I had high hopes that this would repel gophers. All they did was kick it out of their holes. And they went about "business" as before. Ha!---

I definately would not buy this product again, it was a waste of both time and money
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
The moles and gophers must love them as they are still making a mess of our yard
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
I must have received an old batch, some of the tubes had no repellant in them at all, the others worked fine.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
Consistent use of these repellents really does seem to chase the moles away. However, my yard is large and the moles just seem to move to another spot. The product seems to be effective for a region about half the size of what the manufacturer claims.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
I was hoping that this product would solve the problem I had w/my moles, etc.////it didn't....they were useless.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
Doesn't work. The animals just drag it out of the hole.

Sometimes the repellent is "shoved" out of critter hole. Sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. You be the judge.

Worked especially well in my raised beds.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
This did not stop the rodents from eating our vegetable garden. I am not certain if we had the wrong rodent type. We tried this last year and something kept eating our plants. I rotated the crops this year and haven't had a problem with rodents yet. We have more rodent holes in other areas of the property but no damage to the yard.

These were a little difficult to apply, but worked well...would recommend to friends.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
It is so easy to use, but there are so many moles and voles. It only seemed to work for about 4 months, but that is better then other items I have
tried.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
It is an easy product to use for these pesty critters. Seems to be the best determent we have used to try to get rid of them.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
Didn't work for me, but it turns out I have voles, not moles or gophers. If the voles were repelled by these, I didn't notice, probably because there are so many of them. Have considered defoliating my acre, but... no, will try the other 500 possible remedies before I give in.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
Had to buy other products to keep the moles away.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
This is one of the few things I've tried to keep voles out of my garden that works. Even better, it's not chemical or toxic to my dogs. A great product!
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
I combined these with mole repellent to help move pocket gophers along. They worked well.
Comments about Gopher and Mole Repellers, Set of 12:
I put these in several holes around my yard and the moles did not seem affected at all.
