Answers to frequently asked questions:
Win the war on moles with Sweeney's Poison Moleworms. Moles eat almost 80% of their body weight in food each day, mostly earthworms, which is why Sweeney’s Poison Moleworms were developed to look and feel like the real thing. If you were to close your eyes and hold a Poison Moleworm and a real earthworm in each hand, you would find it hard to feel the difference. But don’t be fooled. Just fool the moles.
The Moleworm is formulated to be very tasty to moles and when they consume the bait it swiftly kills them. Which means you can return your yard to its rightful suburban beauty sooner rather than later.
Locating and placing the Poison Moleworms in active tunnels is key to successfully getting rid of moles in your yard. Use the 5 locator flags included in the Poison Moleworm package to help easily locate active tunnels. Revisit the marked tunnels after 24-48 hours. Tunnels that have had holes resealed are an indicator of mole activity and a good place to bait.
You will not find an easier way to use bait. Simply poke a hole that’s slightly larger than the diameter of the Moleworm in the roof of the active tunnel and drop the product in. Reseal with dirt, repeat every 5 to 10 feet, and relax. You are done.
Q: I think my dog might have eaten a couple of Poison Moleworms. Should I be concerned?
A: Take your dog to your veterinarian and be sure to bring the product packaging with you. The active ingredient in Sweeney’s Poison Moleworms is Bromethalin. If ingested, it can cause potentially life-threatening signs in dogs and cats. Prompt, aggressive decontamination remains the most effective treatment. Management of any rodenticide toxicosis depends on the type and amount of bait ingested. Because a rodenticide’s active ingredient cannot be determined from the bait’s physical appearance, veterinary staff should identify the ingested rodenticide from the package’s label to ensure proper treatment.
Q: I placed Sweeney’s Poison Moleworms in my yard; why do I still have moles?
A: When treating a mole problem, you must place the bait in an active tunnel for your efforts to prove effective. To figure out if a tunnel is active, you need to flatten out all the runs in your yard. The following day you should notice that one runway has re-appeared. This is an indication that the tunnel is active and is where Sweeney’s Poison Moleworms should be placed.
