This year, he launched a store offering high-quality mole traps and educational resources for both amateurs and professionals. His goal is to provide products and support, including tutorial videos, to help customers manage mole problems successfully.
The store caters to both professional trappers and homeowners, offering starter kits and various types of traps. Anthony highlights the importance of customer support, providing advice and assistance via text and other means.
