"I live in the fine state of North Carolina, for weeks in the month of May, 2007 I could watch the ground rise under my feet, trails being made, my yard looked like a battle zone. I took the advice of several people and went to my local Yard and Garden stores, I picked up several types of mole repellent, needless to say these products did not work at all. While on my way home from doing some shopping, my wife saw a new Northern Tool & Equipment store that had just opened a few miles outside of Greenville, NC. While checking out the great sales in the store we picked up one of the 8ft windmills. When I got home I saw a box that the UPS left on my back deck, inside the box was 2 mole Chaser Windmills that my wife had ordered online from Northern Tools.
I spent a few hours on the next Saturday morning setting the three windmills up. I have one acre of land and the house sits in the center, I placed one windmill at the rear of the property and one on each side. The windmills that were placed on each side, I drove a ten foot galvanized pipe about three feet of the pipe into the ground and then mounted the windmill.
Guess what, these windmills worked. In two days I had no more new trails, so I went around the property stepped down on all trails I could find and gave my yard a good watering, to this day I have no "MOLES""

they are gone,
August 12, 2008
By retirednco
from Del City, (Oklahoma City Proper)

"I put up the windmill one evening, the next day my problems were over, I had numerous holes and "hills" in my lawn.
Proud to say that they all disappeared, thank goodness. Your windmill worked like you said it would.
My neighbor was quite surprise to see how fast the windmill worked.
I used a 10ft piece of gal.pipe instead of the recommended 8 ft. and it seems to do better on catching the wind and it makes the structure out of the way and the blades are high enough that it doesn't matter if you walk underneath it., as the blades are up high.
Thank you for your wonderful and working product."

Mole chaser deluxe,
August 11, 2008
By rickref
from Bellevue, WA
|
"Moles do not like my yard anymore. After years of moles running rampant throughout the yard ruining the flower beds and making it difficult to mow the lawns, finally a solution. My yard has had no signs of moles this season. The windmill chasers work like a charm."

A product that does what it says,
August 11, 2008
By BarbC
from Western North Carolina
|
"Our front and side yard looked like a minature battle field with all the mole holes. The voles wiped out the majority of my hosta's and ate many of my bulbs last winter. I purchased one mole chaser and placed it in the front flower bed, and good bye varmits from that area. I have purchased three more since and plan on ordering more to cover my entire acre. They not only work, but are an added attraction to the yard when strategically placed. A environmentally safe product I highly recommend."

Mole Chaser Protects Garden,
August 11, 2008
By Showngrace
from Leavenworth, Ks
|
"This is my second Mole Chaser product. I have no moles on the east side of my property, but sometimes I have to deal with moles on the west of my driveway where there is no mole chaser. I will install one on that side. I am very happy with my mole chaser. It keeps moles out of my garden!"

At least they make good yard art.,
July 18, 2008
By VaTx
from North Texas
|
"I bought (2) 3 weeks ago. I placed them 20 feet apart in an area that is about 40 feet long and 12 feet wide. Am I rid of the moles 100%? No. We have not had alot of wind so I am optimistic it will drive them out of the area.
So I will wait and see. In the mean time I like the look, and they make nice yard art when you paint them."

mole chasers are great!,
July 3, 2008
By climber
|
"I purchased two of these for where I work about 1 1/2 years ago. We actually had a problem in our outside garden area with squirrels who were creating what must have been amazing underground condominiums for the amount of dirt they would leave piled outside their holes. Since the day we installed the mole chasers, the dirt piles have stopped. The neighboring buildings still have significant excavating being done by the squirrels, (who new squirrels excavated?) but we are an excavation free zone. Our windmills are constantly turning in our high wind zone and we have had no mechanical problems with them at all."

These seem to be working...!,
May 29, 2008
By Molekricket
from Citrus Springs, Fl
|
"I purchased two of these after a "mole metropolis" moved in to my small residential garden! Every morning I walk around my garden to count the large number of tracks and damaged plants. Yet, after one night of having these mills in the garden, I found no new tracks at all during my morning walk around!
A previous customer rated this product extremely low sighting poor quality in manufacturing, construction, design...etc. I found none of this. The one thing I did do was utilize lock washers (a.k.a. split washers) in the assembly of the nut & bolt combination that fastens the blades to the plate."
