After years of battling moles with everything from pellets to spring traps, Talpirid 7150 was my Hail Mary. Spoiler: It delivered.

The Good: These worm-shaped baits are disturbingly realistic—same size, texture, and squish as real earthworms (moles apparently have terrible food-safety instincts). Following the instructions (bury deep in tunnels using a dowel), new mole activity vanished within days. No corpses, but the absence of fresh mounds speaks volumes.

Pro Tip: Pair with spring traps for extra assurance. Gloves are mandatory—human scent = mole skepticism.

The Quirks: Success feels suspiciously easy. Did I poison them or just convince moles my yard’s worm buffet closed? Also, recent reviews mention inconsistent bait quality (mushy worms ≠ effective worms). My batch worked, but buyer beware.

Final Verdict: For Midwest lawns, this is mole genocide in a tray. Southern/northern users—check local success rates. At ~$1 per worm, it’s cheaper than hiring ‘The Mole Guy’ and oddly therapeutic to play subterranean sushi chef.
