Bonide MoleMax Sonic Spike Repeller – Solar Powered Mole & Gopher Deterrent

Effortless, chemical-free pest deterrence for your yard

Bonide MoleMax Sonic Spike Repeller is a solar-powered stake that emits a sequence of predatory warning sounds to deter burrowing pests. By mimicking natural distress calls, the unit helps keep moles, gophers, and other ground dwellers away from your property without relying on chemicals. The design prioritizes eco-friendliness and safe use around families and pets, making it a practical option for homeowners seeking a quiet, low-maintenance solution.

How it works

The Spike uses chatter sound technology to create an audible warning that burrowing rodents tend to avoid. The goal is to disrupt the activity that invites rodents to stay in a yard or garden, encouraging them to relocate to quieter areas.

What you get and how much area it covers

• One unit protects up to 7,500 square feet, making it suitable for medium to large yards.
• For best results, place two units with overlapping coverage to extend deterrence zones.

Key benefits and real-world use

• Chemical-free pest control that suits outdoor spaces and environmentally conscious households.
• Reliable day-and-night operation, powered entirely by sunlight for ongoing protection.
• Quiet, solar-powered performance designed to coexist with pets and children when installed as directed.

Safe setup and practical tips

• Before first use, place the MoleMax in direct sunlight for two days in the “off” position to allow full battery charging.
• After charging, flip to On to start the audible cycle, which should occur roughly every 28 seconds.
• For larger properties, consider a second unit to achieve overlapping coverage and minimize gaps.

Real-life scenarios

Ideal for yards with lawns, vegetable gardens, or near sheds and fence lines where burrowing pests tend to be active. Homeowners report easier yard maintenance and fewer signs of digging after installation and consistent solar charging routines.

Note: Results can vary by site conditions, pest pressure, and setup. This device is designed to reduce pest activity rather than guarantee complete elimination.
