About Us
Hi there — and welcome to The Flat Pack Mole Traps!

We’re a small, hands-on business based in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales, where we design and make high-quality mole traps and tools that actually work. It all started over 20 years ago when Chris, frustrated by the poor quality of traps available, decided to make his own. After crafting and testing a batch of stainless steel tunnel traps, he listed a few online — and they sold out fast.

Since then, we’ve grown (just a little!) but we still do things the same way: making reliable, long-lasting gear that we’ve tested ourselves in the field.

What We Do

We specialise in stainless steel mole traps — including barrel-style tunnel traps, Putange-style traps, and genuine Talpex claw traps. Alongside those, we also make and supply accessories like mole run probes, trap markers, and our popular guidebooks written by expert Simon Bollons.

Everything we make is designed to last and to perform well in all types of soil — even acidic or crumbly ground.

Who Uses Our Traps?

Our customers range from professional pest controllers and gamekeepers to farmers and people who just want to protect their gardens. Whether you’re dealing with a couple of molehills or managing land full-time, our gear is built to get the job done.

We’ve had brilliant feedback from people across the UK (and even internationally), with many saying our traps are some of the best they’ve ever used.
