Here's some tips:
-Buy several traps so you can set multiple in one area. This will up your odds significantly. Even if I have moles working in multiple spots in my yard, I will try to focus on one area at a time using multiple traps, get them quick, and move on.
-Set them on long straight runs, those are their highways. I tend to have good luck putting them right where you start seeing the mound, where the tunnel comes from deeper underground and starts disrupting the surface. The spots that look like a bowl of spaghetti are them looking for food, and they probably won't revisit those.
-If they've been working a while it may be hard to know which tunnels they're frequenting. Some people say to step on a few areas, leave it overnight, see which ones they push up again, and set your traps there. If you have multiple traps like I suggest below, I say just set them and if you don't get anything in a day or two, move them.
-Don't stomp the runs down until you catch them. They may just push up the old ones runs, but they may make new ones instead, which is no good.
-Most likely there's only one mole working in any given area, but occasionally I will get two.
Tips for these traps specifically:
-If the ground is moist you may be able to just push it in and step on it to set it. I typically take a spade and make two cuts across the run jaw-width apart to make it easier. Even though these are well made with heavy plastic, and I've gotten some good miles out of mine, I have broke the teeth off a couple trying to set them in hard dirt. Side note, these have a replacement guarantee on them so if you break one, they'll refund your purchase price.
-Before you push it in the ground, stomp down the run where the trap will be and use your thumb to make a dimple where the trigger lever will be. This will help to avoid false triggers. I normally pull up on the whole trap slightly after I get it set for the same reason. I can probably count on one hands the times over the years that it went off errantly doing it this way.
Hope this helps, good luck!
My parents live in a semi-rural area and the moles will not just destroy your lawn but the burrows will create soft spots in the lawn which can collapse when you walk on those spots and cause serious injury, especially to the elderly.

Listing says the price is normally $16 but most times I've checked on them they were at $20, so $11 is a good price.

I actually have 6 of these traps, but I live in a rural area with a bigger yard and frequently have moles working in different areas at the same time. If you have one working throughout your back yard, yes I would recommend setting a couple traps, it will only increase your odds. At the current price, it makes that much more palatable. I left some other tips in a reply above if you're looking for more advice.
