What Customers Are Saying

The product has mixed reviews regarding its effectiveness in deterring moles and gophers. Some users report it successfully drove away pests within a week when properly installed, while others found it ineffective, with moles continuing to burrow nearby. Concerns were also raised about the product's durability and the disruptive noise it generated. Overall, the effectiveness appears inconsistent, and customers may need to try multiple approaches or return the product if it does not work for their specific yard and pest issues.

Not effective

Would Not Recommend

This product functions as advertised, but I’ve had three of them in my yard for a couple of weeks and moles are digging tunnels within feet of the device.

We are sorry to hear this! Moles and gophers can’t see well, meaning they are very sensitive to sound and vibrations. Initially it is common for them...

Seemed to work, then died after 30 days

It seemed to be helping, then noticed some new tunnels after mowing. Checked on it and it's dead already.

I wish it worked, but it doesn't.

Apparently in my yard, gophers like the buzzing. New mounds every other day.

Holy Moley...don't fall for this!

Would Not Recommend

Not worth the money spent. One of the two that I bought worked 2-days then stopped. Plus, the mole(s), literally dug several tunnels right next to the one that was WORKING! I do not believe these work as described. Save yourself some money and find other alternatives. It was not an item I was looking at originally. One of the workers suggested them to me. When I asked him if he tried them, he said, "no," but he heard they work...I will be returning them to Lowes.

Working well so far

Would Recommend

Seems to work well. Had trouble with moles last year and purchased two of these. One worked all season one didn’t. I purchased two more this year and seem to be doing the job.

Maybe Yes, Maybe No? Too Fragile for Riding Mower

I placed about 6 of these around the yard. There is evidence that moles have departed two areas or are moving away to other areas farther away from the beacons. In one case, it looks like the moles tried to attack the beacon. Maybe it’s driving them crazy. But the same mole went on to make multiple tunnels within a few feet of the beacon, after I deployed the beacon. Don’t drive over the top of the beacon with a riding mower wheel; it will break off the top. Also, be sure to push the beacon as...

Impressed

Would Recommend

Was optimistic about using sound as a deterrent, but it worked. Placed two about six feet apart and haven't had an issue since. Had to go a little deeper with unit to miss it while mowing.

This product is only annoying to people when they are in the back yard. The moles did not care.

Works perfectly

Would Recommend

This product is awesome, I live in Northern AZ where the dirt has lots of pebbles, I tried the battery ones first and couldn’t get into the ground here, then tried these solar powered ones… they are working GREAT !! I purchased from Lowes and would recommend them to everyone.
