What Customers Are Saying
Customers report mixed results with this sonic spike device. Many praise its effectiveness, noting mole tunnels disappeared and gopher activity ceased within days or weeks, with pests avoiding treated areas entirely. Several appreciate the humane, solar-powered, non-toxic approach. However, a large group reports no effect or increased pest activity, with moles digging beside or ignoring the spikes. Installation proves challenging in rocky soil, requiring pilot holes or hammers. Reviewers confirm the device emits signals every 20-30 seconds when functioning, though some note reduced performance in winter or cloudy weather. A few report devices stopped working after initial use. Overall, experiences remain polarized and inconsistent.

Would RecommendI like the fact that it seemed to actually work though I had my doubts. It was an easy fix. It did take almost the entire 14 days for the critter to be gone.
horrible product
Would Not RecommendGophers made a hill right next to the spike! Does not work!
Thank you for your feedback. Moles and gophers can’t see well, meaning they are very sensitive to sound and vibrations. Initially it is common for t... Read More
Great
Would RecommendHavent had moles in a couple of years. The only thing I have done so far to prevent them were these spikes. They appear to be working great! I would recommend these spikes if you are having trouble keeping the critters at bay.
Thank you for sharing!

Worked to chase away Voles from my garden
Would RecommendVoles had been a big problem for the past three years, eating off the carrots, parsley and potatoes. They even ate my onions. I grow organically so couldn't poison and none of the deterrents were working. I bought the Spike wondering if I had been conned about how it would drive them away. No. I wasn't conned. It worked! There are no more tunnels and my in-ground vegetables are no longer being chewed on.

Chase away the moles
Would RecommendLove this product. Put a couple of these strategically around your award and send the moles running away. Solar power recharge works great even if only placed in the sun for a couple of hours each day. No batteries to replace or traps to move around.

Glad to hear how well this worked for you!

Super CHEAP
Would Not RecommendFirst, these are super cheaply made, all plastic. One lasted about two months, the second one about 2.5 months. I installed them in accordance with their instructions. While working, they did not deter the moles in my yard at all, not even those active in the immediate area surrounding the stake. To claim they work up to 100' is beyond a stretch. For me this was a total waste of time and money.

Amaaaaazing!
Would RecommendOur neighbors like to dump 50lb bags of bird seed on the ground (in their yard) next to our patio. We started having issues with groundhogs digging tunnels under out patio, but didn't know what to do about it. We tried pinwheels, they didn't work at all and in fact, we've seen the groundhogs laying in empty porch pots with a pinwheel IN it spinning. This spike WORKS and works humanely. Within a day or two we no longer saw the groundhogs and were able to fill their tunnels back in. Haven't seen...

Did nothing but sound annoying
Would Not RecommendTried this for two weeks as recommended but did nothing at all. Gophers even came up withing 3 feet of this. The only thing it did was make an annoying sound which seemed more irritating to me than it was to a gopher.

Sweeney's 1-Count Sonic Mole and Gopher Repellent
Would RecommendI purchased the Sonic Mole and Gopher Repellent at Lowe's as a clearance item. I wasn't experienced with this product but a neighbor of mine thought his were working well for him. I placed one in my front yard a week ago that exhibited a number of mounds from moles and stomped down all the mounds at that time of installation. Since that time, I have not seen any new mounds in my entire front yard. I have, however, seen new mounds in my backyard where I have not placed a Sonic Mole and Gopher Re...

Would RecommendI have several of these around the perimeter of my yard. Moles no longer come from neighbors' yards into mine!! They must have plenty of sun.
