This mole trap is designed to catch moles. Dig a hole in the mole tunnel so that the mole trap fits exactly into the hole, then push the sand back in. When the mole crawls through the tunnel again and hits the trap, the trap snaps shut and kills the mole. The brackets attached to the trap make it easy to set and place by hand. This mole trap is equipped with a handle, so you can easily pull it out of the ground.
