Gopher Mound
Our normal method for gopher extermination Jurupa Valley, CA home and commercial gopher removal is a combination of trapping and gas injection. At Rodent Guys we do not use the usual poison bait which is strychnine or gopher poison similar to rat poison bait. We have found their effectiveness is low and the danger to your pets and other wildlife including predatory birds is great.
This is why Rodent Guys gopher extermination Jurupa Valley begins with trapping inside the gopher tunnels near recent gopher evidence on your Jurupa Valley property. The traps are positioned inside the gopher’s tunnel using small flags displaying their positions. Rodent Guys normally will let the gopher 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 all of the dead gophers will be removed out of the tunnels which is the 1st phase of our gopher extermination Jurupa Valley. After the trapping we will use our carbon monoxide machines to inject carbon monoxide gas into the gopher burrow killing any more gophers in the tunnel including the young in the nest. Using two seperate methods such as these offers fantastic gopher control allowing us to offer the longest guarantee.
Why not not use gopher poison]?
Various poison baits are sold for controlling gophers in Jurupa Valley, Ca but few of them work well. Even the professional strength of gopher poison sold to to us, a licensed pest control company, is limited in its effectiveness. Strychnine is known to be mearly 50-60% effective as a standalone technique of gopher control. We have seen with these poisons a bit better but still not up to our standards.
Besides gopher bait not having good control for gopher extermination it is also very dangerous to pets and wildlife not to mention children. Sometimes gophers will force poison from their burrows if they don’t plan to eat it (this happens commonly). Once the bait is above ground it is now available for anyone (child, pet, other wildlife) to consume the deadly bait on your Jurupa Valley property. Strychnine has no antidote and kills in around 30 minutes.
Another way for exposure to the poison is if a dog digs down n the tunnel going after the gopher and consumes the lethal bait. Don’t let technicians lie to you, the main tunnels are not several feet below the surface in Jurupa Valley. The tunnels on your property are two to eight inches down and easy to dig since the tunneling removed quite a bit of the soil previously.
The last common way for your pet or wildlife to get poisoned by gopher bait is by consuming a dead or dying gopher that consumed the bait. The bait is still in the gopher’s stomach and when your dog eats the gopher he he eats the poison as well. If you have dogs it is strongly recommended to not use gopher poiosn and do not allow a pest control company serving Jurupa Valley try to tell you it is safe – it is not.
What is the reason for traps?
Here at Rodent Guys we have used many techniques for gopher control for our customers over the years in Jurupa Valley. The main reasons to use trapping as a primary method of gopher pest removal is it works very well and is wildlife safe. No doubt about when you remove a gopher that you have solved the problem.
Why use carbon monoxide?
We know customers want their gopher problem fixed quickly. Since we follow our trapping program up with a carbon monoxide method we have now used a totally different method utilizing a different technology to help ensure the highest chances of full gopher extermination in Jurupa Valley.
The carbon monoxide fills the gopher burrow system with an unlivable environment which only needs them to breath as a method of control. The whole 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 burrow. Once the machines are switched off the gas quickly dissipates from the gopher tunnels. Above ground people and pets are unaffected by the exhaust down in the tunnel. Our machines are registered and approved by EPA and State of California regulations for everyone’s safety for use in Jurupa Valley, Ca.
