A tined mole trap apparatus for catching moles of all sizes and preventing escape includes a pair of jaws comprising an outer jaw and an inner jaw. Each of the pair of jaws have a U-shaped upper portion and a pair of curved outer arms extending from the upper portion. A pair of crossbars is coupled between the pair of outer arms proximal the upper portion. A plurality of tines is coupled to the pair of crossbars. A pivot rod is coupled through the upper portion of each of the pair of jaws such that the inner jaw pivotably moves within the outer jaw between a clamped position and a spread position. A spring engages the pair of crossbars to force the pair of jaws towards the clamped position. A trigger plate is coupled to the crossbar of the inner jaw. A set rod maintains the pair of jaws in the spread position.
