Bye moles!
Aug 18, 2023
My front yard was overrun with moles. I tried everything to get rid of them. I was highly skeptical that this would work, but it got rid all all mole activity! I am buying another because my son just ran ours over with the lawn mower.
Tips:
-It takes a couple of weeks for it to really work. I think activity got worse before better
-Ensure it is tight in the hole. I think I put it in a hole that was too big and the spike was not in contact with the soil enough. Once I put it really tight, it seems to have worked quickly.
Only thing that has worked and will continue to use!
Working as advertised.

Appreciate the 1000% Customer Service.

Within weeks of using this product, it appears as if it ATTRACTS more than repels. Luckily only tried one out. So much more mike activity in yard after placement, and it’s been more than a few days to take effect as instructoions stated.

Sorry to hear about this experience! Moles and gophers can’t see well, meaning they are very sensitive to sound and vibrations. Initially it is common for them to try investigating the source of the disturbance, even tunneling close to the spike, trying to figure out what is causing the noise. Normally, a decrease in activity should be seen in about 7-14 days. The spikes are covered under a 30-day return policy. Please give us a call directly at 855-584-2867 for assistance.
I had this in the back yard

I had this in the ground for 6 weeks and it did not do a thing for keeping thje moles away. In fact, it seems like the mole tunnels just got worse. I will return this to the store I purchsed from for a refund.

I have been using Victor Mole Spikes for 2 years and am very pleased with their performance. Previously, I tried repellent, poison, pellets, traps, gas and cursing with no success. Since I started using the spikes, I have not seen any activity. Their customer service is very good too. Great product.
Does not work at all.

Does not work at all. I have 2 tunnels dug within 6 Inches of spike! Not worth any stars

We are sorry to hear this Faye! Animals may initially be curious about the noise, but they should be repelled from the area once they realize that it won't be going away. We hope you start to see better results. If not, feel free to contact us directly for additional assistance. - Susan
I would give zero stars ...

I would give zero stars if that was an option. What a total waste of money. I have two of these and I have new activity every 2-3 days. I also am using the Mole and Gopher repellant. I have used almost an entire bag of the repellant on 3 tomato plants and have a spike right next to them, I have gopher holes within 2 feet of the spike, along with dying tomato plants. I have better luck with the hose and a shovel. I feel like Bill Murray in Caddyshack, at least he got results and didn't waste his money.

Sure beats keeping up with heavy and expensive D batteries
Works well ... seal joints with silicone before use.

Product works well. However, they are not waterproof and will succumb to moisture issues over time. Seal all the joints with silicone before using to prevent moisture infiltration for a while anyway.
I had one fail in less than a year and it was replaced with no question.

I bought 2 and they work great! Had tried several products over the past several years and nothing worked until these. Just followed instructions and within a few days the moles disappeared
