How to Catch Moles Humanely Using a Bucket Trap #3017397 (License: Personal Use)

This instructional illustration depicts a common DIY mole control technique: burying an open bucket flush with the ground along an active mole tunnel, so the animal falls in and cannot escape. The red arrow emphasizes the direction of movement into the trap, while the magnified inset clearly shows the mole’s physical features-small eyes, velvety fur, and large digging forelimbs. The setup is placed in soil with grass nearby, reflecting a typical lawn or garden environment.
