It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner
inconsistent with its labeling.
Do not apply to any site, to any pest, or by any method not
specified on this label. This product may only be used to
control moles and pocket gophers in manual, below ground
applications in lawns. Bait must be applied directly into burrow
systems. Do not apply in gardens and areas where food or
feed may be contaminated. Do not apply this product by
use of an artificial burrow builder. Not to be sold in individual
containers containing more than 1 pound of product.
The presence of moles may be indicated by a network of
surface ridges in the turf, by a series of conical mounds
of earth pushed up from deep burrows, or by damage to
flower bulbs.
Prior to treatment determine which burrows are active
according to one of the following two methods. Either press
down a small section of the tunnel or remove a one inch
section of the tunnel’s roof. Mark these sections and recheck
in 24 hours. The burrow is considered active if the flattened
runway has been raised up or if the roof has been repaired.
Only treat active burrows.
Carefully punch a hole in the top of active tunnels, drop a
teaspoonful amount of Moletox II® and carefully close the hole
with sod or stone. Do not collapse the runway again or allow
loose soil to cover the bait. After a few days check to see if the
burrows are still active according to one of the two methods
described above. If so, repeat treatment.
Remove center plug from the conical mounds with aid of
a long-handled spoon and drop a teaspoonful amount of
Moletox II® into the underground tunnel. Close opening with
rock or sod. Do not allow loose dirt to cover bait.

their underground tunnel. These lateral tunnels coming to the
surface are on the flat side of the fan and are plugged with soil.
With a long-handled spoon carefully remove the plug. Insert a
teaspoonful of Moletox II® as far down as possible. Reclose
opening, being careful not to cover bait with soil.
Wearing waterproof gloves, collect and dispose of all dead,
