User questions & answers

Question:	Lost instructions and can't figure out how to set. Can you help
Answer:	Hi, KeevanThis trap does require a lot of hand strength to set. Also, I think the single wire on the front of the trap is placed "inside" the trap for shipping. It should normally be able to be on top of the rest of the trap. Rather than trying to detail all the directions here, I'm just going to point you to youtube where you may find visual helps in setting this trap.
Question:	Does it work for gophers
Answer:	Not likely since gopher i don't believe they tunnel 2" below ground level
Question:	How do we know which size to order
Answer:	Unfortunately this is an Amazon error in their posting of this product. The size drop down is 1 or 12 which means you can "ORDER 1 or 12". So the term "SIZE" should be "QUANITY". Or...to put it another way.....there is only one size. A note about using this trap: when you find the tunnel run you want to have the trap loops positioned over the center of the mole run and the bottom of the loops at the bottom of the tunnel. The correct way to set the trap is to have the trap compressed so the loops are fully extended.....then move the trap up & down over the center of the tunnel run until the trap loops can move easily when the trap is sprung. This is the trick to getting the mole each and every time. The 2nd part is to make sure that after the trap is set in place there is little to no gap under the flapper trigger. This will also guarantee the trap will spring when the mole pushes up any dirt as he tunnels through the trap loops.

User questions & answers

Question:	what is your warranty
Answer:	I don’t know what the warranty is but there’s not really anything that can go wrong with them.
Question:	How much weight is needed to set this trap? I have tried repeated and cannot get enough pressure down on it. I weigh about 120 lbs
Answer:	At 120 your problem is technique. Stand facing the high point of the lever and step straight down. Note picture orientation and stand to the right side. This is the best trap around. I’ve caught 127 Moles on my acre lot in 10 years.
Question:	Will it work on shallow tunnels
Answer:	It was designed specifically for shallow or surface tunnels. I have over 50 of these traps as I catch the as a side gig and 98% effective. Occasionally my placement may be in too deep of a tunnel and that is me taking a shot if no better placement is found. My rule of thumb is if I can stick my finger in the tunnel and fell the open tunnel, my trap will work. If all I feel is dirt or barely reaching the open-air part of the tunnel, it won't work as a mole will travel below it and never trigger it.
Question:	Are u happy with this unit and does it work
Answer:	Follow the directions included exactly and it works great. For three years I paid an exterminator to get my moles that were coming onto my property because my neighbors on both side of me had them. It cost me over $2000. So I would say the price of the traps are well worth it. The problem with an exterminator was it usually took them two to three days to get out to set the traps. My exterminator used this brand of trap, so I went to amazon purchased the exact brand and model. Best purchase ever. We are now able to set the traps earlier, thus eliminating the destruction the moles make. I bought three sets of two traps, to have plenty on hand when the moles get active and spread out to make their nests., Place the traps on the most recent track. You can tell the most recent track by the fact that the dirt line with be raised and freshly crumbled looking and you will see little air holes along the dirt line. The fresher the track the faster you can catch the mole. We usually keep the trap in the ground after it has sprung for at least 12-24 hours and then pull it to dispose of the dead mole; use gloves because you do not want human scent on it. Also do not wash the trap. Simply clean the spikes by pushing it in and out of the dirt. Once you have had moles, it is important to survey your property on a regular basis, so you can get them before they make a lot to dirt tracks. The more dirt tracks there are the harder to catch the mole. If you set a trap in a fresh track you are likely to trap the mole in less than 24 hours. The shortest time it took us to catch a mole was 15 minutes and on average 6 to 12 hours.

User questions & answers

Question:	Are these traps the older ones with a strong spring or the newer ones with a weaker spring
Answer:	I recently ordered 4 of them and ended up with the steel ones with the weaker spring. I've already had one mole avoid being caught and since I've already caught 26 moles with my other ones this year I know what I'm doing.... The new traps are not as good and I will probably return them!
Question:	Has anyone gotten positive results following exactly the instructions on the box as provided by the manufacturer
Answer:	I have tried other traps with little to no luck. I now have 6 of these traps and caught 14 moles this year from August thru December on about 2 1/2 acres. I don’t wear gloves but after stomping down their tunnels I remove the grass at the trap, then use a wide putty knife to cut grooves in the ground so the trap easily slides down. When I set the trap I make sure the trigger is barely on the rod, hair pin. Now when I see a new tunnel I feel confident I will have him within a couple days. These traps are awesome.
Question:	Home depot sells this for $9.97. I would buy here but that seems like a waste of money for $3 more
Answer:	Fact: Home Depot has shelf space marked for and sells these metal traps. Less than 10$. The V shaped metal pieces are purely for leverage to set the trap for weaker people. They are not part of the set trap. But all of the parts of the trap are metal. Also Home Depot has the Military 10% discount with just a show of your military pink or green ID. Simple. No loyalty sign up required like Lowes requires.
Question:	How do you know if it is a mole or a gopher
Answer:	Gophers are often mistaken for moles. However, the surface evidence is quite different and not difficult to identify if you take the time to learn to identify gopher vs. mole activity. A gopher does not dig surface tunnels like a mole, and the gopher mound is shaped differently. If you look down on a gopher mound, you will see a distinct crescent or horseshoe shape with a plug of dirt at the top of the crescent or horseshoe. You should also see other mounds close by. If you don't see fresh mounds, look closely for freshly plugged holes 2-3 inches in diameter. These plugged holes can be difficult to spot, but may be your only opportunity to set a trap. The 2-3 inch plugged holes are referred to as "feedholes" because the gopher is not excavating at these places. It is digging to the surface to eat above ground, feeding close to the safety of its tunnel. Gophers always plug their tunnels and feedholes. If the tunnel is open, it is abandonned or possibly there is a vole living in the tunnel.A gopher is strictly an herbivore. Moles eat bugs and worms, not plants. Gophers will eat just about any plant. The crescent shaped mound and dead and wilted plants are a good indication that a gopher is your culprit. A gopher locates plants and roots in three ways; 1) the gopher can clip the roots off below the surface where the damage is not quickly noticeable, or it might clip the base of a plant to just above the surface as it excavates tunnels, 2) the gopher can pull plants growing above the ground into its tunnel from below, or 3) the gopher will surface above-ground, venturing a short distance from their hole to snag plants near the opening. As mentioned before, these openings are known as feedholes and vary in diameter from 2-3 inches depending on the size of the gopher.

Question:	Why is it Taking forever to ship
Answer:	Didn't order from us. We would ship next business day. Barbara
Question:	Will this trap / kill Voles
Answer:	I seriously doubt it. I have been trying for over a month and have not caught any. I would not buy this style for voles or moles.
Question:	how to set
Answer:	Please contact our Consumer Relations Team for assistance with setting the trap. We can be reached at 1-855-5-VICTOR (1-855-584-2867).
Question:	there appears to be no way to hold trap down while pulling plunger up
Answer:	In my opinion there is not an easy way to set this trap. I pull on the spring loaded ram with one hand and hold on to the frame with the other hand. It is easy for hand to slip off the frame. It is important to get the trigger in position before setting trap so the latch falls in place when the ram is pulled back. In any case it is difficult to set this trap.

It is time to take control of your garden or lawn with the Victor Mole Trap. Use this trap to effectively kill moles without the use of poisons or harsh chemicals. This trap is weather-resistant and features a plunger-style body that lets you use it repeatedly wherever moles happen to pop up in your yard.

Why Stop the Moles?

Moles and Gophers fall into the irritating garden critter category and really can do some massive damage. Moles dig tunnels underground to navigate through, although in their process they chew up root systems and mess with plants nourishment systems.

Setting the Trap

1. Flatten out all tunnels, wait 24 hours, then set traps in these locations.
2. Make a depression in the roof of the main tunnel by pressing down with your thumb.
3. Center the trap on the tunnel, with the activator plate directly over the depression you’ve made with your thumb.
4. Push trap down until spears have bottomed out.
5. Preset spear holes by plunging spears up and down until they travel easily to the bottom on their own.
6. Before setting the trap, make sure the latch lever is OUTSIDE the pan.
7. Holding the trap frame in place, rapidly pull upward on the setting handle until the latch lever snaps over the pan.
8. Trap is set. If necessary, apply slight downward pressure to ensure the activator plate is fitting IN the thumb depression, contacting the roof of the tunnel.
9. Trap has fired. Remove mole.

Benefits of Plunger Style Trap

The Victor Mole Trap has weather-resistant spears that remain below ground when the trap is set. This ensures that the sharp points of the spears are not accessible to children and pets. The plunger-style design effectively eliminates moles in their tunnels to help restore your garden to its former condition.

User questions & answers

Question:	Bought 2 of these traps but the moles do not create visible tunnels. They dig straight up and throw the dirt out of a hole. Where do I set the trap
Answer:	The moles are after earthworms and grubs they tunnel everywhere and this past summer I trapped 7 and my neighbor 8. The tunnels will be in a line leading to and away from the mole hill. To catch them you have to locate the tunnel by stepping all around the mole hill and feeling for soft areas. Dig down approx. 3-4 inches and you will see a hole or tunnel running laterally across your lawn. Push down just a little on top of the tunnel to make the mole have to dig it out a little. Set the trap on top of the mashed down tunnel and make sure the trip plate is setting just on top of the ground
Question:	How can I find the mole passage
Answer:	moles leave a mound of soil as they push dirt to the surface. Feel the soil around the mound. What you’re feeling for is the soil to easily collapse, indicating there is a tunnel just below the surface. Garsum includes a couple of flagged stakes you can use to mark the run before and after the mound or between mounds. I placed my trap in the run between two mounds and slightly collapsed the run about 12” before and after the trap. To slightly collapse the run just step on the ground above the tunnel. You’ll feel it give way under the pressure of your foot.
Question:	Two questions: 1) Why won’t this stayed cocked - as soon as I lift my foot up it pops back up 2) How does a mole trigger this trap to close on it
Answer:	I have several of these type mole traps and to date my neighbor and I have caught 14 moles this year. The secret to setting the trap is to gently push down the ground in line with the mole tunnel. Straddle the tunnel with the scissor prongs and step down on the foot trigger assembly. Do not try to push the trap trigger flap into the ground just let it lay on top of the ground that you flattened earlier. Sometimes I have to put a thin board or twig under the trap frame to keep the frame from being buried and setting the trap off.
Question:	What is the different between the mole trap and wire tek
Answer:	I have read its description , it said the trigger device had been strengthened, you should set it up with gardening gloves
