1. Designated use

The Solar Gardigo Mole-Ant Repellant Deluxe was designed to deter moles, ants and other burrowing rodents from the garden and lawn. It emits a vibration and a frequency of 400Hz - 500Hz into the ground. This irritating sound is very annoying to most ground dwelling animals. Any other use as the mentioned is not permitted! No liabilities will be taken for damages or consequential damages or claims resulting out of not reading and/or not following the user guide and/ or any form of modification on or in the product. Under these circumstances, no warranty services will be granted.

2. Important information on the function and use

The device emits vibrations and acoustic waves of 400Hz - 500Hz that are irritating for animals living in the ground. The device does not hinder the animals from being in the area. It makes them feel uncomfortable and the animals will move to other areas, which appear more pleasant and quieter. The dispersion of the underground noise depends on the local conditions and soil. We also recommend to use the device as a preventive measure.

Note: The response of each animal to our animal repellent may vary. The development of our devices, methods and application tips are based on experience, testing and feedback from our customers. Therefore the devices are successful in most cases.

5. Getting started

1. Turn the green cap counter clockwise until it can be removed.

2. Pull the battery cylinder out of the housing and insert 3 × Mignon (AA) batteries with the positive pole pointing upwards as shown on the housing.

3. After inserting the batteries, insert the battery compartment, make sure that the gasket is in place and tighten the cap until the device vibrates.

4. The earth hole drilling aid allows the device to gradually be screwed into soft ground. Screw it into the ground and pull it out again to remove excess soil. Little by little you dig a hole in which the device will fit exactly. Avoid turning the device by the lid. There is a danger of overscrewing it. Do not hammer or force the device into the ground. For hard soils, we recommend digging a hole with our earth hole drill (item no.70040).
5. Insert the Mini Mole Repellant into the ground down to the green lid. Firmly press the earth around the rod. The firmer and denser the earth around the rod, the better the sound waves are conducted.
6. To change batteries, repeat steps 1-3.

Warning: risk of explosion if batteries are inserted incorrectly

Attention! If the device does not work after inserting the batteries, unscrew the cover and turn the battery cylinder a quarter turn to the left or right. If it still does not work, please check the batteries for functionality!

6. Application

To successfully and permanently get rid of all moles from your property, there are a few points that must be followed closely: the mole should not be „encircled“ by the Mole Repellant. It should be driven from the house towards the borders of the garden. To do this, start by placing one or several devices between the wall of the house and the nearest molehill. Never put a device directly into a hill! Gradually move the mole Repellant in 2 to 3 week intervals towards the edge of the garden and away from the house. This time span is needed, as you will notice the molehills „migrating“. If the hills are still in the same place after four weeks, please check if the device is really working (the sound is audible). The batteries might be depleted. If this is the case please use a new set of batteries. The span of time needed to move an animal may vary for a number of reasons. The mole might be more resistant, or the surrounding soil is mainly sandy or contains a lot of peat or clay. This has an effect on the range and efficiency of the sound.

The Solar Gardigo Mole Repellant has an integrated cylinder which allows you to quickly change batteries, without having to retrieve the device. It is also recommended to switch the device off at intervals, as the mole will gradually become ac

customed to the noise.

The fact that there might be more molehills than before after a short time of using the device, is quite normal and should not be the cause for worry. The mole notices a change of his environment and wants to find out where it comes from. However in the long run, the sound becomes too annoying and it will move away. The different time periods for the reaction of the animals may have different reasons, e.g. B. the soil is sandy or peat or clay soil. Please note that underground "barriers" such as pipes, foundations, flowerbed surrounds, concrete slabs can block the sound waves.
