This is due to their territorial nature and I've never experienced anything to contradict it. However, I have experienced the situation you described. Often times after one mole has been trapped, another will move in very quickly, sometimes within a week. When this happens, it seems like there had been more than one mole in that area, but in reality, the 2nd one was a recent newcomer. It took you 6 weeks to trap the 8 moles, which is plenty of time for new ones to situate themselves especially if your 1/2 acre is full of juicy morsels that they feed on. Another possible explanation is that you were trapping during late spring when all the baby moles are just leaving their father and mother... Thanks for commenting.

The last 6 weeks I trapped 8 moles on a half an acre property. So the mole density can be much higher than your article states. regards Recently I bought a small farm.
