Gopher Mound
Our typical approach for gopher eradication Jurupa Valley, CA residential and commercial gopher removal is combined with traps and gas injection. We do not use the usual poison bait which is strychnine or gopher bait similar to rat poison bait. We have found their effectiveness is low and the danger to your dogs, cats and children and other wildlife along with predatory birds is high.
Because of this Rodent Guys gopher eradication Jurupa Valley starts out with trapping in the gopher tunnels nearby the recent gopher evidence on your Jurupa Valley yard. The traps are placed down into the gopher’s tunnel with irrigation flags displaying their positions. Rodent Guys typically will allow the gopher traps sit for 1-7 days varying on schedule, weather and the technician’s recommendation.
When Rodent Guys come to pick-up the traps the dead gophers will be removed out of the tunnels which is the 1st phase of our gopher eradication Jurupa Valley. We will then use our carbon monoxide machines to funnel carbon monoxide gas into the gopher burrow killing any more gophers in the tunnel including any babies in the burrow. Using two differnt control techniques such as these gives great gopher control allowing Rodent Guys to give the best guarantee.
What reason do we not use gopher poison]?
Serveral poisons are sold for controlling gophers in Jurupa Valley, Ca but few of them have good effeciency. Even the commercial version of gopher poison available to us, a licensed pest control company, having limited efficiency. Strychnine is reported to be mearly fifty to sixty percent effective as a standalone method of gopher control. We have noticed with these poisons a bit higher but still not too low for repeatable results.
Not only does gopher bait not having good control for gopher extermination it is also very lethal to dogs, cats and wildlife as well as children. Sometimes gophers will force poison from their burrows if they do not intend to eat it (this happens commonly). Once the bait is above ground it is now available for anyone (children, dogs, cats and other wildlife) to consume the lethal poison on your Jurupa Valley home. Poisons such as strychnine have no antidote and kill 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 digs down to the poison. Don’t let companies trick you, the main tunnels are not several feet below the surface in Jurupa Valley. The tunnels on your landscape are two to eight inches down and easy to dig since the tunneling removed a lot of the soil already.
The other way for your pet or wildlife to get poisoned by gopher bait is by eating a dead or dying gopher that consumed the poison. The lethal bait 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 highly recommended to not use gopher bait and don’t let a pest control company serving Jurupa Valley tell you it is safe – its not.
What is the reason for traps?

Why use carbon monoxide?

The carbon monoxide floods the gopher burrow system with an unlivable environment which only needs them to breath as a method of control. The entire system which is connected by tunneling is filled with this lethal gas in around thirty seconds and will exterminate gophers within the tunnels including young in the nest. Once the machines are turned off the gas quickly dissipates from the gopher tunnels. People and pets above ground are unaffected by the exhaust down in the tunnel.
