1 - Choose a fresh molehill

You can recognize a fresh molehill by the grainy and loose structure of the soil. Spread the soil evenly over the lawn so that you can easily recognize new activity later.

2 –Locate the main tunnel

Use your fingers (with gloves) or a shovel to find the tunnel through which the mole has come up. Make an opening of about 8 cm so that both directions of the tunnel are clear. Ensure that the hole remains smaller than the device so that it seals properly.

3 –Use the support rod

Insert the leg rod into the opening to create a small pit for the calcium carbide.

For optimal results, it is important to use the Taupe-Stop-Mole 52 according to the steps below:

  • Use the device on the first day on all the molehills in your garden.
  • If there are several molehills within a diameter of about 1 meter, treat only one of them.
  • After treating all the selected molehills, open the untreated ones.
  • This will allow you to see immediately the next day where new activities are occurring.

In the days that followed:

  1. Check your garden daily for new molehills.

  2. Treat each new molehill separately with the device.

  3. Repeat this process daily until there are no more new molehills.

Daily follow-up is essential to ensure a quick and optimal result.

After use

  • Check that all parts are intact.
  • Clean it with a water hose and let it dry.


Not recommended for people with heart problems. The noise from the explosion may pose health risks.
