Moles, gophers, and their rodent cousins can wreak havoc on your lawn, leaving behind unsightly holes, mounds, and sinkholes. It’s a frustrating battle that often feels impossible to win. But before you throw in the towel (or pave over your yard), consider a smarter, eco-friendly solution: installing artificial grass.
Synthetic turf not only offers a permanent solution to your rodent problem but also transforms your lawn into a stunning, low-maintenance oasis.
Why Moles and Gophers Are So Destructive
These critters aren’t out to ruin your yard—they’re just hungry. They burrow under the surface in search of roots and small plants, leaving behind tunnels, mounds, and collapsing soil. A single gopher can dig up to 300 holes annually, moving tons of soil and leaving your once-pristine lawn a chaotic mess.
Beyond aesthetics, these holes and tunnels create a safety hazard, increasing the risk of tripping and injuries.
Artificial Grass: The Ultimate Rodent Repellent
Artificial grass creates an inhospitable environment for moles, gophers, and other burrowing rodents. With its dense, impenetrable structure and professionally installed layers of underlayment and infill, synthetic turf denies these pests access to the soil and the roots they depend on for food. They’ll move on to find more accommodating spaces, leaving your yard intact and beautiful.
Switching to artificial turf is a humane solution—no poisons, traps, or harmful methods are needed. Instead, you can enjoy a permanently green, lush lawn while giving critters a nudge toward a more natural habitat.
Why Professional Installation Matters
While the benefits of artificial grass are clear, achieving these results requires expert installation. Proper ground preparation and layered substrates are crucial for ensuring the turf performs as intended and withstands both wear and tear and rodent challenges.
At AGSTURF, we pride ourselves on combining top-quality artificial grass with meticulous professional installation to deliver exceptional, long-lasting results.
