the plot boundary to repel the mole. To do this, place one or
preferably several mole repellents in the ground near to the
house wall – and, most importantly, before the first molehill.
Never bore through a molehill with the mole repellent.
Reposition the mole shocking system, as required but in ge-
neral every 2 – 3 weeks, nearer to the boundary of the plot of
land (away from the house). The time should be set to coinci-
de with the 'movement' of the molehills. If the molehills are
still in the same position after 4 weeks, please check whether
the device is actually operational (the transmitted tone can
be heard). If this is the case, switch off the device for 1 – 2
days and then turn it on again.
The differing lengths of time taken to repel the animal can
have diverse reasons: e. g. the mole is more resistant or the
soil contains more sand, turf or clay.
The Gardigo mole repellent system has an integrated on/off
switch – this is important to note when purchasing a solar

operated mole repellent system. The device should be swit-
ched off at regular intervals to avoid the animals getting used
to the sound!
Shortly after setting up the device you might find more mole-
hills than before in the garden, this shouldn't discourage you,
it's quite normal. The mole and friends from the neighbou-
ring gardens notice a change in their environment and want
to find out where the change is coming from. In the long run
the sound will be too annoying and they will start moving
away from it.
To successfully use the device:
• Never insert into the molehill.
• When using several devices, never place at all corners of
the plot of land or you will trap the animal in the middle.
• Act tactically: begin at the house and work your way to-
wards the boundary of the plot.
• Dig a hole for the device in advance and pack the earth
tightly around the pole.
• Take into account underground 'barriers' such as pipes,
foundations, flowerbed borders, and concrete slabs: these
slow down the sound waves.
Note: the response of each animal to our devices may vary.
The development of our devices, methods and application tips
are based on experience, testing and feedback from our custo-
mers. Therefore the devices are successful in most cases.
