Gopher Mound
The normal method for gopher service Corona, CA home and commercial gopher removal is combined with trapping and carbon monoxide. At Rodent Guys we do not use the usual poisonous bait which is strychnine or gopher bait similar to that of rat poisonous bait. We have concluded their effectiveness is low and the danger to your dogs, cats and children and other animals along with predatory birds is great.
Because of this Rodent Guys gopher service Corona starts out with setting traps in the gopher tunnels near most recent gopher evidence on your Corona home. Most traps are inserted inside the gopher’s tunnel with small flags showing 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 we arrive to retrieve the traps all of the dead gophers will be removed from the tunnels which is the first phase of our gopher service Corona. We will then use our carbon monoxide machines to place carbon monoxide gas into the gopher burrow taking care of any other gophers in the burrow including the babies in the burrow. Using 2 seperate techniques such as these gives excellent gopher control allowing us to give the best guarantee.
Why do you not use gopher poison]?
Serveral poison baits are available for controlling gophers in Corona, Ca but few of them work well. This includes the professional strength of gopher bait sold to to us, a licensed pest control company, having limited efficiency. Strychnine is reported to be only 50-60% effective as a standalone technique of gopher control. We have noticed with these poisons a bit better than that but not too low for repeatable results.
Not only does gopher poison not having good results for gopher extermination it is also very dangerous to pets and wildlife not to mention a child. Sometimes gophers will eject poison out of their tunnels when they don’t plan to consume it (this is common). When the gopher bait is pushed above ground it is now in reach for anyone (child, pet, other animals) to eat the lethal bait on your Corona property. 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 tunnel going after the gopher and eats the poison. Don’t let technicians trick you, the main tunnels are not several feet down in Corona. The tunnels on your lawn are 2-8″ below and easy to dig since the tunneling removed a lot of the soil previously.
The last way for your pet or wildlife to get poisoned by gopher bait is by eating a dead or dying gopher that consumed 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 have dogs it is strongly recommended to not use gopher poiosn and do not let a pest control company serving Corona try to tell you it is safe – it is not.
What is the reason for traps?
We have used many methods for gopher eradication for our customers over the years in Corona. 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. There is no doubt when you remove a gopher that you have removed the issue.
Why use carbon monoxide?
Rodent Guys knows customers want their gopher infestation solved quickly. When 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 eradication in Corona.
The carbon monoxide floods 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 around 30 seconds and will eliminate gophers within the tunnels including babies in the nest. Once the machines are turned off the gas quickly dissipates out of 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 Corona, Ca.
