Reviews & Customer Feedback

We have had lots of positive feedback from professional and amateur mole catchers alike:

  • "Bought 4 of these traps now, works every time it's set, brilliant many thanks" G Lighton, Lincs, UK
  • "We bought 2 of the Easyset Mole Traps last year as we were plagued with moles - we had tried several methods before without much success - until we tried yours!  They have worked a treat and we have been successful every time we've used them.  We even lent them to a neighbour and he was also successful, so much so that this current order for 4 is in fact for him!" John Hyndman, Austria

  • "I found out about the product because I subscribe to the UK edition of "The Week" and it was favourably reviewed therein. I've had good luck with it. I caught two moles in the first week and am now challenged to find new places to redeploy it as the mole activity is so reduced. It has been far more effective than other things I've tried in the past (poison - useless, traditional steel spring-loaded spear traps - useless, solar-powered sonic deterrent - somewhat effective) so congratulations to you for literally coming up with a better mouse (mole) trap! I see no reason why US gardeners wouldn't like it …" Noah W, NY, USA

  • "Thank you! Your traps do exactly what they say they do! Read the instructions, that are very clear, and set the traps and your problems and anxieties are soon behind you.  Delighted it does what it says it will do on the label and more so that it is a brilliant British product. Feel free to use this letter as an unsolicited big thank you!" Dr A Haden-Taylor, St Brelade, Jersey

  • "Since that momentous occasion my lawn surface remains undisturbed and I am now removing the molehills and reintroducing the soil back into the tunnels and seeding the bare spots. It has been more than a week now and my lawn has no more problems. Clearly he was a loner and his demise has restored calm and peace to my lawn – it is no longer a war zone." Anonymous

  • "I pulled up the trap and low and behold the pest who had been destroying my erstwhile pleasantly striped lawn! Neatly caught with the first wire and well and truly dead! I removed the interloper and dropped him, as instructed into the hole from whence I had just removed it. Inserted the rectangle of turf that I had removed to insert the trap when I was setting it and trod down."Anonymous

  • "I looked out of the window and saw both traps with their black “plungers” clearly visible!  I had set them in two different parts of my lawn and the first was disappointing as the trap was empty! However, moving to the other, that I had set quite well into the lawn – with the top of the trap only just visible because the tunnel was deep."Anonymous

  • "I thought I would drop you a line to say a big thank you! I ordered two of your brilliant mole traps and they arrived in good time. I followed the instructions contained on your website and also reinforced on your packaging and within two days my problems where over!"Anonymous

  • "Either I was very lucky or your trap is miraculous! I have about an acre of garden and bought 2 traps. There were 2 separate areas with most mole hills. I chose one of these areas and put 2 traps down. Got a very large mole in one of the traps next morning. Had a mole catcher in a few years ago and this DIY option was so much more convenient and cheaper. Thank you." Simon Silver, Ross-on-Wye, GB

  • "Received our purchase of 2 Easy Set Mole Traps and set them on Friday evening on our allotment. Arrived at our allotment at 8.30am Saturday morning and great success - mole caught 1st time of using trap. Well done Beagle - you have made my husband's day. Hopefully no more moles and our broad beans and potatoes can continue to grow!!! Once again, well done on a great product." Pam Robinson, Hunstanton, GB

  • "Having had a 'professional' mole catcher visit our garden and walk away as it looked too tricky we bought two of your traps at the Malvern Spring Show a few weeks ago. Despite my initial scepticism and total past failure with other traps I set a trap as instructed and caught my first mole within 24 hours. Since then three more moles have been caught and activity has significantly decreased. The traps are so simple and effective the expectation is to catch a mole every time. Great." D. Barber

  • "I caught a mole first time, after failing with my old traps" Andrew Taylor, Hampshire, GB

  • "After a slow start, I am now catching moles successfully thanks to your advice.  I think the spade makes all the difference getting the hole the right size." Sir John Maxwell Macdonald, Scotland

  • "I've caught one!" Colin Hogg, Jedburgh, GB

  • "Your mole trap is fantastic! Set it once - and caught the mole which has been playing havoc with our lawn." Jane Keogh, Yorkshire, GB

  • "It is important not to let any light in.  The first couple of times there was no catch, but once I sealed it in properly with earth I caught one big (very dead) male mole within 8 hours." - Robert Strachan, Dorset, GB

  • "Brilliant – caught the little beggar the first day!" Mark Snell, Herefordshire, GB

  • "I am extremely pleased with my Beagle mole trap. Throughout the winter a mole had decimated my back lawn and although I set and persevered with the traditional galvanised scissor and tunnel traps, I was unable to catch the little blighter.  Purchased the Beagle trap - very easy to set, and caught the mole within a couple of days!  I am very satisfied customer and will definitely recommend this to others."  Mr C Dukes, Stourbridge, West Midlands, GB

  • "Bought two traps at the Malvern Spring Flower Show.  Bingo! Worked first time. Very many thanks." Dr. B Heap

  • "We purchased 2 or your traps at the Malvern Spring Show.  We have always had a problem with moles and have struggled with the old metal traps for years.  Last weekend our little velvet friends returned! Beagle traps at the ready, we had 2 moles in 2 days! Fantastic result and so easy to use." J. Dickson

  • "I bought one last year from you and it did get rid of my Mole :-))) So when a friend of mine got a mole, I let him use mine. He is so happy with it that he asked me to get one for him." Marianne Fry, Germany

  • "Mole caught within 24 hours of receiving your trap. You win my 'Gadget of the Year 2013' award even if you can't enter such a competition!" Anthony Wright, GB
  • "It took  6 days to place the trap in the right run, and to our delight we caught two in quick succession - brilliant! and thank you." R Piddington, GB

  • "I am very happy with the mole traps, I will be buying more in the future, I caught a mole first time. I am impressed. it is very easy to use. I will be telling my friends about them." Owen Matthews,  Swansea, Wales

  • "Got the wee beggar. Thanks." J Rintoul, Fife, Scotland

  • "Very impressed. This is a really good machine. It's simple, easy to operate, works well and just "does what it says on the tin". Does not rust and is vastly better than any of the alternatives on the market (by far and away the best written instructions on how to trap a mole that I've read). Highly recommended. We no longer have a mole problem. Excellent." Robert, Ipswich, GB                                                                                                    
  • I bought a mole trap from you on Friday at Badminton to catch the moles who are ruining my vegetable patch! But ....success on my first attempt at mole catching! I set the trap as per your instructions on Saturday and went off to work. When I returned the trap had gone off and I found one very dead mole! Please tell any women that it is really easy to use and works - the only downside is that they will have to add mole catching to their list of duties!!! Isabelle Walker, GB                                                                                

  • Earlier this winter my wife and I purchased a property. It came with a lawn on which we had visions of playing Pimms-assisted croquet late into balmy summer evenings. A far-sighted neighbour dropped by, bringing with him a house-warming present - a dark green EasySet Mole Trap made by Beagle. In early spring our lawn erupted into numerous molehills. Not good for croquet. Our neighbour returned. He saw the devastation, departed, shortly to come back carrying a metal probe, a narrow spade and a trowel. He chose the two most recent molehills and probed the ground between them. In no time he had located the tunnel not far beneath the surface. With the spade he cut out a square sod revealing the tunnel. On his hands and knees he used the trowel to clear a small chamber. The tunnels, running off left and right, were visible. I passed him the trap, our house-warming present. This he armed by pressing down the plunger against a spring, sufficiently powerful to ensure a speedy, humane demise of the animal. At no time during this process were our neighbour's fingers in any danger. It is a wondrously safe device unlike some others based on the hair-trigger rat-trap principle. He laid the trap in the chamber in line with the tunnel entrances, lightly replacing the earth around it to keep out the light whilst leaving the plunger free to pop up.
    The very next morning I found the trap had sprung, clearly indicated by the raised plunger. I lifted the trap, released the dead victim by depressing the plunger, and disposed the body. I then leveled the all other existing mole hills so that any freshly dug mounds would be obvious, thereby facilitating the location of the re-set trap. So far, a week later, no mole hills have appeared. Nicholas Hudson, France
