The Benefits of a Tunnel Pest Control Plan

Burrowing pests can quickly turn a healthy lawn into a patchy, uneven mess. Gophers, moles, and voles damage root systems, create unsightly mounds, and leave behind soft spots that make your yard difficult to enjoy. A dedicated pest control plan is the most reliable way to stop the damage and restore your lawn’s condition.

Instead of relying on short-term fixes, consistent service helps your grass stay healthy and protected. The Tunnel Protect Plan from Proterra Pest Control is designed to manage these pests over time, allowing your lawn to grow back strong and smooth.

Here’s what makes a tunnel pest control plan a wise investment:

  • Restored Appearances
    Stops new tunnels and mounds, allowing your lawn to regain a clean, even look.
  • Healthier Growth
    Protects root systems from damage, supporting stronger, greener grass.
  • Safer Yard
    Reduces tripping hazards caused by collapsed tunnels and soft spots.
  • Long Term Results
    Avoids the cycle of repeated DIY treatments that rarely solve the problem.

what the Tunnel Protect Plan Includes

Your service begins with a detailed inspection to identify which pest is present and to map out the extent of their tunnel system. Once the inspection is complete, we implement a treatment plan and set up a maintenance schedule to monitor activity and prevent new pests from moving in. This plan can also be bundled with our Pest Protect PLUS Plan for broader coverage across your entire property. 

Here’s what the Tunnel Protect Plan covers:

  • Gophers
    Known for deep tunnels and large mounds that disrupt soil and plant roots.
    GO
  • Moles
    Create raised ridges and damage turf while searching for insects.
    GO
  • Voles
    Chew through grass and garden plants, leaving trails and bare patches.
    GO

The Risks of Leaving Tunneling Pests Untreated

Moles, gophers, and voles may seem like minor nuisances initially, but their presence can quickly lead to severe damage. These pests are fast and persistent diggers, capable of creating large tunnel systems in a short amount of time. What begins as a few mounds can spread rapidly across your yard, tearing through the root systems and leaving your lawn needing costly repairs like re-sodding or reseeding.

The damage isn’t limited to grass. Voles feed on roots, bulbs, and the bark of young trees, often destroying ornamental plants and garden beds from below, where the harm isn’t visible until it’s too late. Gophers can be just as destructive, pulling entire plants underground and leaving empty patches behind.

In some cases, tunneling near driveways, walkways, or foundations can weaken the soil and lead to structural issues such as cracking or shifting. Letting these pests remain active on your property puts your landscape and potentially your home at risk.
