Gopher Mound
Our normal approach for gopher extermination Moreno Valley, CA residential and commercial gopher removal is combined with traps and gas injection. At Rodent Guys we do not use the normal poisonous bait which is strychnine or gopher bait similar to rat poisonous bait. We have concluded their effectiveness is low and the danger to your pets and other animals including predatory birds is high.
Based on this our gopher extermination Moreno Valley begins by setting traps in the gopher tunnels nearby the most recent gopher evidence on your Moreno Valley home. These traps are placed down into the gopher’s tunnel using markers marking their locations. Rodent Guys normally will allow the traps sit for 1-7 days varying on schedule, weather and the technician’s recommendation.
When Rodent Guys come to retrieve the traps the dead gophers will be removed from the tunnels which is the first phase of our gopher extermination Moreno Valley. We will then use our carbon monoxide machines to inject carbon monoxide gas into the gopher burrow eliminating any more gophers in the tunnel including the young in the nest. Using 2 differnt methods such as these gives excellent gopher control allowing us to give the longest guarantee.
Why not not use gopher poison]?
Various poison baits are available for controlling gophers in Moreno Valley, Ca but few of them have good effectiveness. Even the commercial strength of gopher poison available to us, a licensed pest control company, is limited in its effectiveness. Strychnine is reported to be only fifty to sixty percent effective as a standalone method of gopher control. We have noticed with these poisons a bit better but still not high enough.
Not only does gopher poison not having good control for gopher extermination it is also extremely lethal to dogs, cats and wildlife as well as children. Sometimes gophers will push poison from their tunnels when they don’t plan to consume it (this happens commonly). When the gopher bait is pushed above ground it is now available for anyone (child, pet, other wildlife) to eat the lethal bait on your Moreno Valley home. Strychnine has no antidote and kills in around 30 minutes.
Another way for exposure to the poison would be if a dog digs down n the burrow going after the gopher and consumes the bait. Don’t let pest control companies lie to you, the main tunnels are not several feet below the surface in Moreno Valley. The tunnels on your landscape are two to eight inches below and easy to dig since the tunneling removed a lot of the soil already.
The last common way for your pet or wildlife to get poisoned by gopher bait is by consuming a dead or dying gopher that ate the bait. The poison is still in the gopher’s stomach and when your dog eats the gopher he he eats the poison as well. If you own dogs it is strongly recommended to not use gopher poiosn and do not allow pest control companies serving Moreno Valley tell you it is safe – its not.
Why use traps?
We have played with many methods for gopher control in the past few years in Moreno Valley. The main reasons to use trapping as a primary method of gopher pest control is it works very well and is pet-safe, child-safe, wildlife-safe. No doubt about when you remove a gopher that you have solved the problem.
Reason for using carbon monoxide?
We know customers want their gopher infestation fixed quickly. Since we follow our trapping program up with a carbon monoxide method we have now used a totally separate technique utilizing a different technology to help ensure the highest chances of full gopher eradication in Moreno Valley.
The carbon monoxide floods the gopher burrow system with an unbreathable environment which only requires them to breath as a method of control. The whole system which is connected by tunneling is filled with this lethal gas in around 30 seconds and will exterminate gophers within the tunnels including offspring in the nest. After 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. Our machines are registered and approved by EPA and State of California regulations for everyone’s safety for use in Moreno Valley, Ca.
