Description
Your yard is meant for you and your loved ones, not uninvited guests. Kick out the intruders with Tomcat® Mole & Gopher Repellent Granules. This repellent effectively deters not only moles and gophers, but also voles, armadillos, and other burrowing pests. The granules utilize a proprietary formulation that emulsifies the active ingredient, castor oil, so that it can be easily mixed with water. This specialized process is called Ground Penetrating Technology (GPT). GPT significantly improves the ability of the castor oil to mix with water and penetrate deep into the soil, successfully driving moles and gophers out. Tomcat® Mole & Gopher Repellent Granules utilizes natural ingredients and is safe for your lawn and garden. It can be applied by hand or with a broadcast or drop spreader. For the best results, move the moles away from undamaged lawn by treating the lawn in stages. Before applying, locate active mole areas and runways to determine which way to push moles out of your yard. One 4 lb. bag of Tomcat® Mole & Gopher Repellent Granules covers up to 4,000 sq. ft.
Step by Step Instructions
How to Use
- Day 1: Spread granules over the undamaged lawn first, preventing mole damage in these areas. Also start treating the damaged lawn nearest to the undamaged lawn. This will start the process of moving moles away from your lawn. Water granules for approximately 20 minutes on a light shower setting. Water & GPT allows the repellent to absorb into the soil more thoroughly.
- Day 2: Continue the movement of moles by spreading the granules away from undamaged lawn and towards the boundaries of your lawn. Spread the granules over the second area; water the same area as Day 1 plus the second area to get moles moving. Each watering allows the granules with GPT to penetrate more deeply.
- Day 3: Spread the granules over the third area. Water the same area as Days 1 and 2 plus the third area.
- Day 4: Spread the granules over the fourth area. Water the same area as Days 1, 2, and 3 plus the fourth area to push the moles out of your yard.
When and Where to Use
Where to Use
- Start where pest damage is noted on the lawn and move outward out of yard area.

It's OK not great
I've been using this product for two years. Ive even purchased several mole beepers. After I saw my idiot neighbor spray and sending them to my yard. I think thats the meanest thing to send those darn things to some else's yard. I tell my other neighbors to put tom cat down or grub killer at the same time I do so we all can send them away. If they don't then I do not feel bad if moles go to their yards. Tom cat is OK the moles slow down and go to another spot in my yard or leave. In 3 or 4 weeks the little wicked destructive home wreckers return. If I fertilize they return. The healthier my lawn the more grub appear the more moles return. I have lost all hope. The only thing that really seems to help is grub killer and I'f I don't put it out in the fall or spring before the grubs are plentiful the moles and voles just dig and tear up my lawn. Thank god they're mostly in my back yard.

Didn't work for me.
I bought two packages of Tomcat Mole Killer with no success. We still have moles and they are digging many mounds. I read that if it doesn't work that I would get my money back but I have sent in the information with receipts and have heard nothing back.

Sprayer is worthhless
I bought the spray bottle that hooks to hose- supposedly covers 10,000 sf.
Used it twice on my 7000 sf of yard and still have 80% left in the bottle! For some reason it is not putting out the product thru the spray. Very disappointed but the moles are happy!! I may try the granules if I can find them in a store near by but Lowes only had the spray. So far, very disappointed.

Easy and Effective
The moles, voles and gophers we such a huge pest! They were tearing our yard to shreds and the tunnels were the worst when walking through. I bought this product out of desperation. I don’t want to kill any animals I just want them to leave. IT WORKS! We spread the granules all over the yard and it has been pleasant to see the grass growing and no bald spots or mounds of dirt.

OOPS. I failed to put out insect killer on my yard - then the moles showed up. I used this product and them seem to be gone.

Would recomend if you have a small problem.
This product did come with a torn corner of the bag. I wasn't thrilled about pulling it out of the box and having this product spill on my floor when I have pets and children. I did apply this product to my yard and having seen anymore critters. I do believe the product works but not sure if it would work if you have a big problem with them.
