Moles and other outdoor rodent pests

Question: Hello,
We have been told that we have a mole/moles in our yard. A local business will eradicate the first mole at $300, then charges $200 per mole removal after that. I'm looking for a less expensive solution and if possible, more humane. We have a septic system and sprinkler lines that haven't been turned on yet (new build), and I'm concerned about other rodents like gophers and voles in the area that may start using those mole tunnels and cause real damage to the systems mentioned. We live in Byron and while there are plenty of birds of prey I don't think they are doing enough to save our yard (haha). I'd like to find a non-toxic solution, but I don't have a lot of time as a resource to handle all this myself. Is there anyone with the county extension who would perhaps trap and rehome rodents? Or, educate us on how to do this? 
Thank you! Please see attached picture of our molehills. The one on the far right is the most recent, the older ones are from this last Fall.

response: Thank you for writing. This appears to be the damage of a gopher, not a mole.  Definitely not a vole which is essentially a field mouse. Gopher mounds tend to not have holes (they are still digging), and are kidney shaped (rather than in cones), and occur in fall-spring rather than spring summer. Lawn repair is one issue. https://homeguides.sfgate.com/repair-landscape-damage-gophers-32885.html Getting rid of gophers is another.  https://www.thespruce.com/how-to-get-rid-of-gophers-5192504 Personally, I suggest renting a trap as the cheapest method.

response: Hi,Thanks for your reply.  Where does one rent rodent traps from? This is all new territory for us! Do you also happen to know if MN allows people to relocate these pests, in case we decide to go with a humane trap?  Per the Spruce article, it mentions that some states like MA prohibit the relocation of rodent pests. If I can't find a trap rental place, we may just buy one off Amazon.Thanks.Susan GarciaOn Fri, Apr 14, 2023, 11:29 AM Ask Extension <<personal data hidden>> wrote:

I found several trap rental stores close to you by googling rent animal traps rochester  I am not allowed to recommend specific merchants.    Best to you
