Mole Away! is a high-potency, non-lethal subterranean repellent engineered to displace burrowing moles, mole-rats, and garden pests.

Evacuate destructive subterranean moles naturally without traps or toxic baits.

Stop lawn, crop, and paving destruction without toxic poisons or lethal traps. Mole Away! Concentrate is an advanced, bio-engineered subterranean repellent formulated specifically to displace burrowing mammalsโ€”including true garden moles (Talpidae), golden moles (Chrysochloridae), Common Mole-Rats (Cryptomys hottentotus), and the giant Cape Dune Mole-Rat (Bathyergus suillus).

Unlike conventional Western repellents that require flooding thousands of liters of water over lawns, Mole Away! utilizes an undiluted direct-injection method. Dispensing just 20 ml of neat concentrate directly into an active subterranean shaft saturates the enclosed air space with high-potency volatile compounds, driving pests out without wasting water or washing active ingredients into the water table.

The multi-modal lipid emulsion combines thermal-extracted Capsaicinoids (TRPV1ย heat/pain channel active) and Eugenol (TRPA1ย chemical irritant channel active) with organosulfur compounds from Lactic Acid Fermented Garlic Extract (LAFEGE). Together, these actives trigger acute trigeminal sensory overload and destroy colony scent markers, forcing immediate daylight surface evacuation. Suspended in an acidic, CalMag-stabilized Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB-X) carrier with Castor Oil, contact during tunnel clearing induces long-term EP3ย receptor-mediated gut aversion, preventing neighboring populations from recolonizing treated runs.

Key Benefits

  • 100% Organic & Non-Lethal: Safely evacuates pests without leaving toxic chemical residues or hazardous carcasses underground.
  • Dual-Action Evacuation: Simultaneously attacks sensory breathing channels and turns underground plant roots unpalatable.
  • Neat Direct-Injection System: Concentrated 20 ml doses saturate tunnel air directly, eliminating the need for heavy bulk watering.
  • High-Yield Bettix Bottle: A single 500 ml Bettix bottle provides up to 25 direct shaft treatments.

How to Apply

  1. Locate Active Shafts: Find fresh soil mole heaps or active surface runs across your lawn, garden beds, or growing plots.
  2. Expose the Tunnel: Clear loose topsoil from the heap to expose the open subterranean shaft entrance.
  3. Inject Neat Concentrate: Squeeze 20 ml of undiluted Mole Away! Concentrate directly onto the floor of the exposed tunnel opening.
  4. Seal & Tamp Down: Immediately cover the opening with excavated soil and tamp firmly to trap volatile vapors inside the tunnel network.
  5. Sequential Evacuation: Treat active mounds sequentially, working from house foundations or crop beds outward toward property boundaries until pests exit the area.

Pro Tip for Long-Lasting Potency: We retain the extra-fine chilli and clove botanical powders directly inside the bottle to ensure continuous active extraction and maximum subterranean staying power. Please give your Bettix bottle a quick shake before dispensing to evenly distribute the active matrix.

How It Works

Mole Away! operates via a multi-sensory barrier system that attacks subterranean mammals through taste, smell, and nerve irritation simultaneously:

Active Bio-Ingredient Primary Mode of Action & Biological Impact
Castor Oil (Ricinoleic Acid) Serves as the primary gustatory active. Contact or ingestion during tunnel clearing binds to intestinal EP3ย prostanoid receptors, triggering acute smooth-muscle hyper-motility and severe stomach cramping to establish conditioned location aversion.
Clove Powder (Eugenol Matrix) Binds aggressively to subterranean TRPA1ย nerve channels (cold/chemical irritant receptors) across the snout, eyes, and nasal mucosa. High vapor pressure in enclosed shafts creates immediate nasal burning and overpowers navigation.
Extra Hot Chilli Powder (Capsaicinoids) Selectively targets TRPV1ย nerve channels (heat/pain receptors). In combination with eugenol, capsaicin triggers synergistic sensory overload across the trigeminal system, making tunnel air unbreathable.
Lactic Acid Fermented Garlic (LAFEGE) Synthesizes garlic (allicin) and onion (propanethial S-oxide) organosulfur precursors. Volatile compounds flood the tunnel, masking territorial scent markers and spatial navigation cues.
Organic Lactic Acid Base (LAB-X Carrier) Provides an acidic (pH < 3.5), biologically stable preservation matrix that stabilizes volatile phenols and locks in long-term shelf stability without synthetic preservatives.

US Gopher Studies & The Elephant Garlic (2-in-1) Advantage

Research on North American pocket gophers (Geomyidae) confirms that organosulfur compounds derived from Alliums (garlic, onion, and leek derivatives) act as strong olfactory spatial deterrents:

  • Scent-Masking & Olfactory Irritation: Subterranean mammals rely on acute olfactory cues to locate roots and navigate lightless shafts. Concentrated allicin and organosulfurs irritate their nasal passages while masking the scent of subterranean plant roots.

  • The Elephant Garlic 2-in-1 Synergy: Because Elephant Garlic (Allium ampeloprasum) is biologically a giant wild leek, its biochemical pathway generates both allicin (the core garlic active) and propanethial S-oxide precursors (the lachrymatory factor found in onions).

  • Combining LAFEGE with Clove (Eugenol) and Chilli (Capsaicin) replicates the exact multi-chemical repellent matrices evaluated in US agricultural trials against pocket gophers, but delivers it in a single fermented liquid drench.

    Unbelievable, use on supertube mound that was been undermined, Strandmol came out within 2 hours, while tube was on! Could safely be relocated to the reserve
