Gopher Mound
Our typical method for gopher control Norco, CA residential and commercial gopher removal is a combination of traps and gas injection. At Rodent Guys we do not use the usual poison bait which is strychnine or gopher bait similar to rat poison. We have found their effectiveness is low and the danger to your pets and other wildlife along with predatory birds is elevated.
Instead Rodent Guys gopher control Norco begins with trapping in the gopher tunnels nearby the most recent gopher evidence on your Norco property. The traps are inserted inside the gopher’s tunnel using irrigation flags showing their positions. Rodent Guys typically will allow the traps sit for one to seven days depending on schedule, weather and the technician’s recommendation.
When Rodent Guys arrive to pick-up the traps the dead gophers will be removed out of the tunnels which is the first phase of our gopher control Norco. After the trapping we will use our carbon monoxide machines to place carbon monoxide gas into the gopher burrow killing any more gophers in the burrow including the babies in the burrow. Using 2 types of control techniques such as these gives great gopher control allowing us to offer the longest guarantee.
Why do you not use gopher poison]?
Various poison baits are manufactured for controlling gophers in Norco, Ca but few of them have good control. Even the professional version of gopher bait sold to to us, a licensed pest control company, is limited in its effectiveness. Strychnine is known to be mearly fifty to sixty percent effective as a standalone method of gopher control. Our experience with these poisons is a little higher but not high enough.
Not only does gopher poison not having good results for gopher extermination it is also very dangerous to pets and wildlife not to mention children. Sometimes gophers will eject poison from their burrows if they do not plan to consume it (this happens commonly). Once the bait is above ground it is now available for anyone (children, dogs, cats and other wildlife) to eat the deadly bait on your Norco property. Poisons such as strychnine have no antidote and kill quickly in roughly thirty minutes.
Another way for exposure to the poison is if a dog digs down n the burrow going after the gopher and eats the lethal bait. Don’t let technicians fool you, the main tunnels are not several feet below the surface in Norco. The tunnels on your lawn are two to eight inches below and easy to excavate since the tunneling removed quite a bit of the soil previously.
The other common way for your pet or wildlife to get poisoned by gopher bait is by eating a dead or dying gopher that ate the poison. The poison is still in the gopher’s stomach and when your dog eats the gopher it he eats the poison as well. If you have dogs it is strongly recommended to not use gopher poiosn and do not allow pest control companies serving Norco tell you it is safe – its not.
Why use traps?
We have used many techniques for gopher extermination in the past few years in Norco. The main reasons to use trapping as a primary method of gopher pest removal is it works extremely well and is wildlife safe. There is no doubt when you remove a gopher that you have removed the issue.
Reason for using carbon monoxide?
Rodent Guys knows people want their gopher infestation solved right away. When we follow our trapping up with a carbon monoxide treatment we have now used a totally separate method utilizing a different technology to help ensure the best chances of full gopher eradication in Norco.
The carbon monoxide fills the gopher burrow system with an unlivable environment which only requires them to breath as a method of control. The entire system which is connected by tunneling is filled with this lethal gas in about thirty seconds and will eliminate gophers within the tunnels including offspring in the nest. After the machines are turned off the gas quickly dissipates out of the gopher tunnels. Above ground people and pets are unaffected by the gasses down in the tunnel. Our machines are registered and approved by EPA and State of California regulations for everyone’s safety for use in Norco, Ca.
